Batteries Not Included |

Batteries Not Included tension pulls stretching need beyond reach dead cells scoffing feeling the disrespect in hushed tones waiting a racing heart the only sound a thousand tears draining feeling the aloneness under my skin standing lost waiting tripping the day away M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

and such is life. unjust that it may be at times... remember my satan van? The battery went dead once and my son put in a new one...but didn't "lock it down" by time I figured out why I was stalling out every time I made a turn the battery cable was fried!! good times...and a lesson learnt. We learn from everything...even it it's just that we need help or encouragement. I hope your today and tomorrow is brighter! "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

If all you need is Triple AAA batteries... you must drive an itty bitty car... Sorry - my brain jerked. |

Still chuckling about Sunshine's reply. But seriously, I do know the feeling you wrote so well. I try to get a few moments meditation during those trying times in life. I just slip away from it all. Patricia |

And I thought this was going to be reviewed... If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
