Some days, your best
laid plans, go awry.
Don't delay,
change your journey.
Build you defenses,
fortify the wall.
Risk not your friendship,
you cannot have it all.
In many cultures, striking up a conversation with a stranger is the norm, and could even lead to a budding friendship. But not for the Swedes....In Sweden, casual chattiness is seen as needless, since conversation is used for exchanging real, meaningful information. More at BBC ➜
When life springs eternal,
what about love?
Should we all play by
the rules from above?
Why do you worry?
It helps you not.
OK to have concern,
that is my thought.
When you worry,
you pick up a bag of rocks,
it is quite painful, from the
hat on your head to your sox.
If you are in love,
please don't tarry.
Step up, tell them,
love is better than worry.
Write of tomorrow
and what life may bring.
Think about others,
make your memories sing.
Life is quite fleeting,
in the Cosmos we know.
Prepare for tomorrow,
get on with the show.
Sometimes it helps to go back and look at what was written. This was on January 6, 2018
Love can not be bought or sold
and is not for you to borrow
what does not belong to you
and give it back tomorrow,
for love runs away from me,
seeking others, for the morrow,
while sadness permeates my soul
drowning me in sorrow.
It must be burdensome,
to be in God's hands,
having to make decision,
about who wins or loses.
How would you decide,
on the merits of life,
when you don't punish others,
but you will take a wife.
Hard to believe today,
when looking at others.
How different it must be,
deciding between sisters and brothers.
Empathy,
Compassion,
Not everyone is gifted,
with those attributes.
How unbelievably sad.
Why do you resist,
help from your friend,
when you probably know,
it's a means to the end?
I am tiring,
when faced with those,
who attempt to play,
"head" games.
"Suck up's" are nearby,
buddying up with those
who had a position here.
Enough already. Pay no homage.
There are some "smooth talkers",
here, all men. Some naive women,
who don't recognize when
someone is "hitting on" them.
I suppose there are some
games they played before,
coming here.
I've heard most of them.
I am certain, this isn't the only
place where this occurs. Nevertheless,
I find it amusing, but also sad these
type of games being played at
this time of life.
How old am I?
