+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+ When presented with a challenge, There are times I wish to hide, But it is not wise, to run from life, So I dig down deep inside. I look for strength and wisdom, And the courage to carry on, So that I can face those demons, And show that I am strong. I learn from all my lessons, Come they once, twice, or thrice. But in time I come to realize, Each one is worth the price! +*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+ |

Earth Angel, I always enjoy your wisdom. My big lessons usually come in threes -- that line caught my attention big time. You, I can tell, are one courageous soul. hugs x 10 to the 10th power! .....jo |

interloper ~ Hi, there, stranger! It's was great to hear from you! It has been far too long since you sailed these seas of blue! That was a wonderful 'senryuic' response! If you were to post it, there would be more readers who could benefit from your mots of wisdom!  Warm, welcome-back hugs, EA |

iliana ~ A "chuckle" from you can be heard in the hearts of those who are fortunate enough to be in the range of your laughter! I trust that you are sleeping by the time of my writing this reply! ~ but soon I shall be singing out "Rise and shine, my l'il lily gal!" Huggums snuggums, Linda Lou |
