Hi Tex,

 

Nice to see you here.   

 

I hope the image itself did not disturb you.  Or is it that you are trying to place where or when

you might have seen it?

 

Hope you have had some easy moments this week, my friend.

 

It's been a challenging one on my end, but onward 

 

Much love to you, Tex.

 

Take good care of yourself

Hey Ins!!!

No, the image did not disturb me...the inability to place it did...

'Intriguing' would be closer...

I have had peaceful moments between non-sleeping sessions.

I have been here all along, just not openly...your thread allows me to visit without bothering or being bothered...such a nice thing when you wish to be the shadow instead of the shadow caster...

You, Dear Ins, will always meet the challenge...you have learned the secret of bending...

Love back to you...

tex

It's not what you say out of your mouth

that determines your life,

it's what you whisper to yourself

that has the most power!

Tex,

 

My non-sleeping sessions are increasing in frequency and presenting some real challenges,

e.g., impaired everything

 

May the weekend bring some relief.   

 

Thank you for your presence - shadowy or otherwise.

 

Love, Ins

Good Morning, CD

Hoping we can increase the positive whispering to ourselves

so we can continue moving forward with as much momentum as possible.

Enjoy your healing moments on the water.

Much love to you,

Ins

Life makes fools of all of us sooner or later. 

But keep your sense of humor and you'll at least be able

to take your humiliations with some measure of grace.

In the end, you know, its our own expectations

that crush us.

Do not believe that you alone can be right.

The man who thinks that,

The man who maintains that only he has the power

To reason correctly, the gift to speak, the soul—

A man like that, when you know him, turns out empty.

Sophocles, Antigone

 

It is easy to go down into Hell;

Night and day, the gates of dark death stand wide;

But to climb back again, to retrace one’s steps to the upper air—

There’s the rub, the task.

Virgil, The Aeneid

TO ME...I THINK THE FIRST QUOTE MEANS THAT (WE ALWAYS WANT TO THINK THAT WE ARE RIGHT) HOWEVER, WE ARE NOT.  AND, IF YOU ALWAYS...MEANING (WE) THINK WE HAVE TO PROVE JUST HOW RIGHT WE ARE...THAN WE WILL EVENTUALLY END UP ALONE!  NO ONE...CAN BE RIGHT ALL THE TIME!

 

THE SECOND QUOTE (TO ME) CAN BE INLIKENED TO WHAT WE ARE GOING THRU RIGHT NOW. WERE IN HELL (A GOOD PORTION OF THE TIME) AND WE ARE CHOOSING TO MAKE OUR WAY OUT, AND THRU THIS JOURNEY...MANY OF US...RETRACE OUR STEPS AND COME OUT A BETTER PERSON FOR IT.

 

DOES THIS MAKE SENSE.

 

INSOM...CAN YOU STEP IN HERE.  I'M NOT AS GOOD AT EXPLAINING AS YOU ARE.  WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THESE QUOTES?

OH, AND CD, THERE IS NOTHING STUPID ABOUT YOU. SO, PLEASE DON'T SAY THAT.

 

HECK MY FRIEND, I MAY NOT HAVE A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT I THINK THE QUOTES MEAN EITHER.

Fluter,

My brain is barely functioning and here are these amazing quotes.

You have been busy, and now I will find time and pray for concentration to consider what you have shared.  Anything too weighty "swoosh" ~~~ right past me. 

Hope your weekend is relaxing.

Hugs, Ins

Ingrid,

Oh, I know you are so proud of him and all of the hard work and sacrifices.

Also, I know you are missing him - I am sure he is missing you, also.

Much love to you, Ingrid

Love, Ins :smitten:

Wow, I absolutely love this, Flutter!   I want to hear this person's thoughts... and know who they are and how they have lived.  It is now saved on my desk top for future use!  Thank you so much for bring it to us here.

 

And I love the quotes.  I will have to be less mentally tired to take them in.  But... I will be reading them again when I can actually read them!  lol

 

Have a great weekend!

 

Love you much,

Lily

I live there...

 

where the birds are infinite

everywhere

 

where they flee

it's a place your eyes can

wander

but never see

SO, LAUGHT AT YERSELF ...MIGHT AS WELL BEAT ALL THE OTHER FOLKS TO THE PUNCH...AND YA KNOW WE GOTTA KEEP,A SENSE OF HUMOR...

WE DO SOME INCREDIBLY DUMB THINGS UNDER THE GUISE OF RATIONAL BEHAVIOR...

WE SHOULD ACTUALLY BE GRATEFUL THAT FOLKS DON'T LIVE UP TO OUR EXPECTATIONS, BECAUSE THEN WE MIGHT HAVE TO LIVE UP TO THEIRS...

I HAVE FOUND THAT SCREAMING INTO A PILLOW IS QUITE A RELEASE, BUT IT LEAVES ME WITH A SORE THROAT AND IT DROVE MY DOG INTO THE FAR SIDE OF THE HOUSE...

 

BOTTOM LINE..."DON'T SQUAT WITH YER SPURS ON"  (I THINK THAT WAS WILL ROGERS, BUT AM NOT SURE OF ANYTHING BUT WHO EVER SAID IT DID IT...HAW!!!

Stay Strong, Friends

Very beautiful, Ins. :)

You have one of the kindest hearts on this forum,

going out of your way to lift up those of us

who are really hurting and vulnerable

 

Your acts of caring have lifted me out of

despair many times

 

For all the love you have shared

and do share, may it be returned to you

a thousand times over.

 

Thank you for being so special.

 

Sending love to you, Snow
