~*~ Kick boxing is more than a sport more concise without leaving a bruise, so why does it hurt so bad. Every time I took my turn I never made the moves it was a fools game I couldn't win for losing, each loss hitting below the belt. Regardless of the fact, you meant more to me but I still couldn't help myself, so why should you care. Our mistakes are our own, and ours alone to make no matter how many ways we place the blame and I always knew my chances were slim and none. After one too many sucker punches finally did me in but in my own way, I'm glad it was you. Like a dead ringer I was sure to miss and I do. ~*~ |

"Our mistakes are our own, and ours alone to make no matter how many ways we place the blame" Those two lines grabbed me as well...so very well said... I always wondered why it is so many fill their time assuming the actions of others then passing judgement as if their thoughts were fact? I couldn't have said it better!  "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

It hurts all right, but it's nothing that time won't heal. Thank you EaglesOne~ Sometimes I wonder if it's just me....Thank you Dixie, I'm glad you understood. Snowflake~ It's not a good feeling, sorry about that!! Thanks for reading. Duncan~ As in lighten up??? yep, I'm way too blue, but at least the color is true. Thanks, I think.  iliana~ you're so sweet, sweetie~ Margherita~ It's so nice to see you here, I've been thinking about you. I hope you are well, I've missed you. Thanks Susan~ How's your wedding plans coming along? Nancy~ The truth be told, I would rather be writing romance like you do. Hugs to you, dear enchanting poetess. |

I've been both....ringer, and dead. Each is pretty forlorn, if for different reasons....don't want to be either, ever again. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Our mistakes are our own, and ours alone to make no matter how many ways we place the blame and I always knew my chances were slim and none. I like this very much, Bluesy one... there's the sadness of failure... but even sadder is never trying... for then we never live. *S* |

Bluesy, I know this write carries a lot within it and your feelings are not foreign to me or most of us. I have been down that lonely dusty road, looking for a smile... Eventually I found one, and you will as well...this I know! |
