Some Things I'm Learning
On The Road To Growing Up


In a relationship
a half-hearted
effort is never enough.

This life will be rough enough
without messing good
things up.

understanding this
but sometimes half-a-heart
is all we have to spare
maybe then
it's best
to slowly turn
and walk away


enjoying this ponderful write, James

"This life will be rough enough

things up."

I couldn't agree more, James, but being human we manage to do that more times than we're actually aware of.

James

We are all human

Although at times it does get a bit close

Some things work when you dont try; others work because it arn't trying

It works or it doesn't

If you can find the 'Holy Grail' of relationships

I wish you luck
