    At Twenty-five (For Janis Ian)

    At Twenty-five (For Janis Ian)Listening to Janis Ian's AT SEVENTEEN, I wondered  where the girl in the song would be and how she would feel just a few years later?  So, I wrote...AT TWENTY-FIVE (Dedicated to Janis Ian)It was long...

    • Hoi hoi
      Hope this finds you well?

      I’ve been reading your writes with very much pleasure.
      Even our musical tastes seem to have parallels.
      The first Verve and Capitol LP’s by Janis Ian are still proudly in my cupboard and on my record player.
      If you want to have the Janis Joplin recordings in Het Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, please let me know.

      I’ll PM you for the rest.

      Please keep those writes of yours coming.

      Kind regards, Gus

    • This is amazing. Love the lyrical poetry and the meaning behind it.

    • Lots of truth to this, but not all. I know the trophy wives. I had crushes on them in High school. Now their married to powerful men. Life is an odd thing sometimes.

      My last comment for you. You’re very talented, good luck with your writing. 🙂

           Night bore witness to our wild union. It was a hot night along the arched passageway leading into the castle chapel from the expanse of the courtyard. The ancient stone passage was torchlit and our...

    Learn To Embrace Yourself (Advice for young writers)

    Forget how to love and learn how to hate. That's my advice for young, audacious writers.   Learn to embrace who you really are. Forget the facades that are flattery.   Forget gregariousness and learn when to be silent. Forget bullshitting and learn not...

    • Every one of us has the power to heal & to harm within us. It’s which course we choose to follow that separates the healers from the rest. Beautiful, Brenda 🧡

      • hello lovely Willow this is true it is always my intent to make things nicer it doesn’t always go that way no matter what sometimes thank you for the love on this 💕

    • Even with faith we will still struggle. I guess pain is a part of life when it comes. For many, faith has its benefits and joys. For others it’s a fantasy made up by humans. I suppose our minds and how we think plays a big part.

      • my faith perhaps is not as strong as others though I do know God I struggle with suffering thank you for your thoughts 💕

    • Great write Brenda.
      I now realise that pain is quite different from suffering.Most, if not all, our suffering arises in the mind…..
      that’s also where peace hangs out.
      💋

      • hello dearest Benny my mind cause me to hurt with the way I perceive the world… I watch the news and ache with the pain of my brothers and sisters…there is an unrest in me that doesn’t understand such mind scarring events what is the nature of that? thank you for listening 💕

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • hello lovely Mary good evening thank you beautiful lady most graciously for being so kind 💕
