In the circular motion that we move in there is much to lose and more to be gained when coming full circle at both ends. In search of a connection I've turned in all directions that might set me straight, given the chance. I wish I weren't so comfortable in the irony misleading me through familiar territory only to end up traversing through the same tunnel. As if I knew my way around getting lost all over again and it breaks my heart to leave you like this. But I am out of gas and I'll be fine for days at a time once I find a place in the shade to call my own. In another lifetime, when I make the right turn I will be back, and if I've learned nothing else I rest assured that the light will be on when I do. Until next time... I'll miss you most of all it's been that way for as long as I can remember It's always been about you~ |

In search of a connection I've turned in all directions I wonder how many of us feel this very same way? Lord knows I do...everyday. I feel as though I am searching for me, for anything that resembles sanity amidst the confusion. Wonderful peice! Tima C.

"Until next time... I'll miss you most of all it's been that way for as long as I can remember It's always been about you~" That says it all. A great piece! |

Only from you... If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

I've found myself going in circles many times... all thoughts of progress wiped out when I realized I was right back where I started. *S* You've written this SO well, serenading one. *S* |

 (big hugggsssssssss) Oh Lori, this is beautifully sad, dearest friend, this sounded like a Sheryl Crow-style song that I would love to hear! (sigh) This is painful, dearest friend, I hope now you have someone who listens close to you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |

Dixie~ I'm glad I'm not alone, thanks for keeping me company. Dear Larry~ Who me? Hugs for you. Ed~ Venus and Mars all right, no wonder! Thanks.Maur~ I know, it's the chance we take that makes it so hardd. ~Hugs girl friend~ Martie~ I appreciate you too, more than you know. Yea I'm into blue, maybe I should mix it up a bit more. Thank you always, Linda~ Janet Marie~ That was awful nice of you. You are always so gracious with your replies, and I thank you for the lift. That's so poetic and inspiring...another poem in progress. Hugs~I know all about square one, I just want to get past GO, just once! Suthern, thank you so much. Ms. Slick~ Sometimes my pen starts to melt when I least expect it, and I can't help myself. I'm so glad you stopped by, thanks. Thank you Noah~ In the end we only have to answer to ourselves. Putting our feelings into words helps to lighten the load. Kathleen~ It's hard to find the center in the midst of all the spinning! It makes me dizzy, obviously. Thanks, you. Topsy~ Welcome to Passions and thanks.Ethel~ You are such a kind lady, and I appreciate you. |

Bluesy - I often think - no wait . . . have you ever seen the movie, "Groundhog Day" where Bill Murray keeps waking up to the same dreadful day over and over and over . . . I wish I weren't so comfortable in the irony misleading me through familiar territory only to end up traversing through the same tunnel. me too loved this tweets xxoo |

circular, continous but yet not coming to conclusion , giving closure, sort of maddening, isnt it when that happens? or am i totally wrong on this, sometimes i see what is a current thread in my life but love your words, love that blonde! |

Lori...trust me when i say i'm not pre menstrual,lol, but that made me cry. perhaps it was the truth in it, the sincerity, the emotion that seems to grab a hold of your face when you read it? either way, bluesy, it did. perhaps my fave of yours ever...though i end up saying thatall the time, cos you do just get better and better. so its in my library now. yay. gonna go and read it again thru less blurry eyes. thanks lori, for this powerful write. much love, gem xxxx |

Sometimes we have to break that circle and find a new path...one which gives to us as we continue to give...Hard not to. Very hard not to. This is a very touching write filled with what seems to be some degree of frustration and a sense of a great burden that must be lifted... |

Michele~ You always read me just right and I thank you. It's good to be blonde.... gemma, gemma~ I suppose at times I'm honest to a fault, but I have no idea how to change that. Thank you for reading me and everything that you said. I think I need to tone it down some. The shade of blue that is. Thanks Krawdad~ Well since you know exactly where I'm coming from, I won't explain any further. As always Barry, I thank you for your knowing reply. |
