Traits in abundance- apathy and laziness, showing reluctance to use God's life gift fully I hope to dump them behind larry's challenge~~ /pip/Forum7/HTML/000552.html [This message has been edited by kaile (04-13-2003 12:42 PM).] |

Kaile! Challenge well met! In Tanka form yet. Not easy, taking a full message and diluting it to its full richness! [This message has been edited by Sunshine (04-13-2003 12:45 PM).] |

Kaile, Tell me again how you got so mature so early! You're too cool dude. I love it. Way to go and such a unique format for that challenge. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

BRAVO! You're just getting better and better, yanno that? This is one of my favorite forms...tanka. Though you'd never know it, I haven't written one in over a year. OK, so maybe I'm inspired. |

This is really so true! We blame everything on anything, never stopping to ponder about past events that helped to shape current situations. This is the result of apathy and laziness... Good take on reality. _,,,^.^,,,_ |

LOL - Well done, kaile - apathy and laziness are surely under-rated personal assets... |
