Love will find us all.
Be patient and know your worth.
It’s the only way.
Trust me, I’ve tried other ways.
And they were a fools errand…

It’s one of the biggest lessons I’ve had to learn in my entire life, and I had to learn it three times before I finally mastered it.

I’m hanging in there, too. Thanks for asking. I’ve been fresh out of inspiration these days. I sit at the computer, write something, delete it, write something else and delete it. It’s frustrating! But, that’s just me being me.

Aww you’re brilliant let me know if you ever want to try Rengays (poems we collaborate on such as a haiku or a tanka)
I’m sure you’ll break through the writers block believe me I can relate.
Maybe try lunes (3 words/ 5 words/ 3 words)
Or a haiku that’s what I do when I’m stuck. 😊

I’ve never studied poetry before. Sometimes my brain doesn’t comprehend. Like reading music. It was easier to hear a song and sit and play it. At least it’s more fun. I will check out the site and let you know how it goes.

Hmmm, I agree, some hells we should never see or know. I suppose it could be true, ignorance is bliss. I mean, sometimes being happy means we overlook certain things, characteristics and situations?
I do agree, hell is perhaps what we live while here on earth. I don’t think I believe in an eternal hell fire.

I believe in reincarnation I’m almost positive. I’ve lived past lives in this life was a major debt payment to one or more past lives that I was not such a good person certainly feels like I’ve been paying something off.

Wow, John is like you in that belief. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I respect it, just not sure how I feel. Being raised in a cult I still have so many things to learn

I’ll tell you a little secret the unhappiest people I know are wise the happiest people I know are stupidly happy.
I’d rather be happy. My obtaining the wisdom I have is through some of the worst hells. I’ve changed my mind, hell is not an eternal afterlife, it happens for extended periods of some of our lives.
The wise presumption comes from the wisest people I’ve known it studied. None were happy because they saw more and understood more than most.
There are some hells none of us should know. Just my 0.05.

Seems so many people these days don’t want a relationship. They want the friends with benefits. Makes me sad knowing good people can’t find their matches.
