Choose the bitter or the sweet,
you control the tastes you eat;
you can frown or you can smile,
try them both out for a while;
pain is real, it always passes
if you wear rose coloured glasses,
what you look for, you will find
we create well with the mind;
be careful what you choose to say,
you don't know who you'll hurt today
casual words can have sharp edges
or push people on to ledges,
if you drown me in your pain
do you feel better? Do you gain?
If today I bear your sorrow,
will you join my joy tomorrow?
If not, what's the point in this?
Time to say bye bye; kiss kiss!





Perhaps I should call it the song of the heartless woman.

Morning Lady K! I always choose the pink glasses because I prefer to live in at least neutral state if I cannot be joyous about something.

Change what you can and do not stress about the rest.

Not easy but simple. And it can be done.

The state of Neutrality (Pinky Land) yeah it helps for awhile to feel comfortable ... but then the reality hits it always does ... What glasses you have in a pocket of your mind for this situation?

Good morning Ladies! all of you .... Snowdrops are just about to burst into bloom grin wine

For me 'pinky land' (I like that) does not deny reality.

It just refuses to get stuck in the feeling that reality is the same forever or that it is intrinsically bad.

There are things I do not like, that I am not going to be happy about, but I will not be miserable about them forever either,

An example: I used to dance ballet and it was generally agreed by my teachers etc. that I had potential to follow that life. I broke my ankle badly and could not do point work.

I switched to modern dance, overcame a back injury and then five years later damaged a knee so badly professional dancing was out of the question. So now I am the best darned dancer at parties.

Of course I limp for three days afterwards but that is a price I am willing to pay. I love to dance.

Certainly there were tears and heartache along the way but I chose 'pinky land', look to what I can do rather than what I cannot do.

It is the way I prefer to live.

Shoes gone!?! Tragedy! Love shoes, wear flip flops .

We have had the occasional little yellow crocuslike flower popping out. Lots of nice fresh green also.

I got absorbed in this conversation and forgot to go to work!

Actually I was there yesterday and it doesn't really matter as long as i get there by noon, one of the perks of being management! (That plus the fourteen hour day)

Anyway ladies, I trust your day will go, continue or progress well.

I'll be back later.

Ciao!wave
