    “You’re a long time dead,” they say.“Sow your wild oats,” they say.“Live today like it’s your last,” they say.“You only live once,” they say.“Throw caution to the wind,” they say.“Go chase those dreams,” they say.“Adventure is worthwhile,” they say.“Take...

    • I sincerely wish the bookmark worked for me, but try as I might it doesn’t. This will be permanently bookmarked in my mind though

      • Thanks for reading and the compliment.
        The Bookmark feature works but not as it should.The Bookmarks are only being stored in your Browser history and when you clear your history you also clear your bookmarks….just saying.💋

    • hello dearest Benny I guess I love our terrible creator because he is terrible like me of me like him…he never leaves me alone though the godly people abandones me right away… you can only do your best and life isn’t a fairy tale I get it with the memories 💕 great write…

    • I wouldn’t mind if we did away with platitudes altogether. It’s entirely too easy for people to quote one of them at you without really thinking of any sort of meaningful response that might better fit the situation.

    • “Love & light” or “positive vibes only” also come to mind. Toxic positivity is a real issue….people have to be able to grieve, to get frustrated and angry and complain on occasion. These are unpleasant things that all humans must experience.

      One of my least favorite to hear is “be yourself”, which too often means “confirm my biased opinions of you”.

    Stone Soup

    I'm flat,drawn out, stretched thin and empty. Not by living but by love unanswered day by day. As if sands of time, those tiny falling grains, tell me that mountains crumbled and cliffs washed into the sea…and if so...

    • You honor me. Teddy distilled intanible feelings that are common to generations into visceral principles. I merely ramble in my own way on common themes, though not many would slough through one of my rambles.🌼

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts, especially on the lines you’ll really felt. I.believe your right about, “seek she who can lead to remembrances.”

      If one had to describe themselves to another without stating profession, education, faith system, political leanings, family or organizational relationships, what word would describe one’s self best? Would it be lover, fighter, friend, peace keeper, or something else? I am a seeker.
