Talking to a Conversation Twin dying on the inside is so much more painful than the full blown body does our weakness make us strong how we walk through days inside gone and shells echo the misery I wish I (and you) were one of those people inspired by love I mean real love the staying kind the fighting with you through it love that has romantic moments yet has the up close and personal clinging you get so compromised at times and I don’t know if I even believe any more I hope I do I see it in others faces but it escapes me I wonder if there are those that escapes it except the pain I wish it were different I wish it were me and you "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." |

I still believe...I won't allow anyone to take that away from me. And on my dying bed if I am still alone...I will still believe. Because no matter what, or who, oh how much...I feel that it's out there and what I feel has always been my most beautiful gift.. very sweet words Helen.  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

In this turbulent old world we live in it seems that true and genuine love isn't something that one can hang onto for very long. You have to admit we live in a meism society where most eventually start to pursue some form of self indulgence and practically shut out those around them. However, that genuine love is out there and it can be long lasting but like the old cliche goes 'it takes TWO to make it work' and therein lies the problem. My ol Grandma who was married for decades and quite happily always made the statement that "a good marriage (or relationship) is made up of TWO very good forgivers." Lot of truth there. So don't give up and don't let it make you too calloused either. There's definitely someone out there that'll appreciate you for the person you actually are despite everything life throws in the way to make it difficult. Hang in there and don't lose your deep sensitive heart just hide it behind some caution and take a little longer to let yourself out. Take care Eric |

I kept praying for a Christmas miracle. I apparently should have tried threats long ago. *smile* Scrooge has decided (with a little persuasion) that he'll come up with some tuition. And I dunno lovie...maybe we're just presented with cruel dreams of almost just so we'll write...? Maybe I should quit looking for answers. Somebody told me once that life wasn't a question-- but who's on first?  I love you m'friend. Wish you were here to stare with me at this Christmas tree. I'd burn it down but it was my sister's.  Did I say that I love you? |

You remind me of longings I don't acknowledge often anymore... ... at least I'm in good company. *S* |
