I know that I red this one before...
and was moved by it.

Not sure why I chose tonight to respond to it... and then rather lamely.

I see the gown, the purple, the butterflies.
I think of an image of myself that I've long since forgot.

(No, I've never worn a purple gown... or any gown at all... just to clear.)

I just like it... your write.
Never the right words though...

Write it then... I'll be your muse.
Be gentle though...

Seems to me that it says more about them than it does you.
Whether or not you're the "right" one or not... idk.

Regardless, if you're not the right one for them doesn't mean anything about you.

I've picked up a hundred books that I never finished...
I never thought that the author wasn't "right" and I never thought the author would think the same of me.

Simply awesome...

No.

Either they want to let you in... or they don't.
How could I help you understand something that you already know?

That's pretty good fer 6 minutes time...

It's so internet-savvy.

After 51 years, I doubt that I could do better.

Very nice...
I call it "her" though.

I remember too...

I guess that I hear what you're sayin'... but I need to disagree a bit.
A white that calls a black guy, "painted"... is an A-hole.
Slow-minded and misguided,
It doesn't depict much more than that to me.

If you see more in it... I won't argue.
Mebbe you have your reasons?
But I don't.

You are very observant. (Is there a I tip my hat to you emoticon?)

Yeah, diggin' in, me. Dwelling, always.
No sweetheart... we are not allowed this... we simply choose it.
After all, what does that get us?

My passion is always genuine... my passion for you and your writing is very sincere.
Never-the-less... simplicity is road that we'll take.

JD is often overlooked in his understanding of life and the world around us... that's my opinion.
But, yeah, go where life pulls you... be it the moon or something other.
And when life shakes you to the core... love the moment.
I pray that you'll have others to share that moment with.

Do me a favor though... don't tell anybody that I Like JD so much... that I have a 6-albulm set. They may think I have have no "swag" and talk poorly of me, haha.

Damm... I was just thinking that might help me some.
Nothing else seems to work.

Well said... I'll beg-off now, I seem to be missing your point... sorry for that.
Also sorry that you experienced such pain... wish for you better days.

Beautiful write.. thank you sharing that experience.

Wind (and storms) is a thing that I've always held in contention... long story, that.

But occassionaly this one helps sooth my soul when I over think it all.

I kinda like what you got...but,
I'm strange.
GL and welcome to Mingle.

Awesome... can't beat that.

Well now, I disagree with the premise that you can't know a person's core being.
The quintessential mistake being that we don't often take the time to learn it before we move into action... like getting married od even falling in love.
Yeah, yeah, they tell you this and that. I do the same... I'm no different in that respect.
But if you rely on what others tell you... to the point that you disregard your own observations, your own intuition?
Did you bother to look deeply?

Listen... I don't wanna judge you or anyone, but your life is your own. Trust whoever you want to trust... and don't whoever you don't.

I'm just saying that none of us are free from the expectation that you infer... we all lie.

But if you start with that premise... you lie, Teditis lies, the next dude in your life is going to lie... that will be a bit more realistic, no?

As to their "core-being"... acknowledge that you're smitten by emotion... (That's a very lovely time.),then pull back a little and do the hard work of seeing if behavior matches what they profess. And if what they profess and what you're looking for is a good match.
But if you get lazy and don't look... hey, that's on you. (imho)

But to assume that your expectations are all are running the same course... seems presupmtuous. There's too much diversity these days.
What you call lying... others call a "means to an end(goal).

So it ain't lying until you state your expectations... and quit assuming theirs.

But if you have no definitions as to your own expectations... you're going to flounder. Be cork on the ocean.

We're all liars, Moutainwatergirl... the trick is to lie less, and ask your partner if the're willing to do the same.
If you're afraid to ask... stay single.

"The error rate for 39 fingerprint samples used was previously defined as approximately ±1.1% and deemed small enough to be of little consequence especially since conservative and/or lower bound values for ridge formation quantitative weights were applied throughout the model. However, pending peer review the author allows for the possibility that these values may not be sufficiently precise and therefore remains open to the possibility for a frequency of occurrence study with a larger fingerprint sample size and possible refinement of various values and formulae."

Get a good lawyer... they can argue you don't even exist.

Creepy or no... we still need to remain true to our nature.

Love what you've got say... keep saying it in your own way.

Where's "Peg", dude?

There it is...

TY... haha.
But just to be clear.... my thoughts are are dwelling on a friendship that I hope to grow.
That part, I may have confused with the "piece" itself...
Your clarity reminded me of what we're here for.

You folks write... I offer comments of me or whatever.
I want it to remain so.

Most all of you have my respect in crafting your magics...
TB just happens to rock my thinking... kindred souls perhaps.
