I honestly would like to read more when and if you have the time. You are very talented, I usually truthfully am very non-plussed about poetry but something in the winter poem was touching.
Gosh my english teacher in grade 5. Back then the mini skirt was in fashion and being young men of 9 years old our entire class had a crush on her. Miss Browne had the longest legs and straight long brown hair like Marsha from the brady bunch. Whenever she spoke with a boy they would blush a crimson red colour from ear to ear. I still smile thinking about her and yes she would be an old lady now. What does that make me?
If you personally have exhausted all avenues of reconciliation and you feel your mother is the same person then perhaps you need to let go. You seem to have survived without her for a long time so my advice would be just get on with your life. If she happens to want to be a part of it then let her know you are there as her son but not meal ticket. Saying no is o.k. buddy, its the only way some people learn to take responsibility for their own binds. I know it sounds like parent child reversal but unfortunately that's the way it is sometimes. Not all parents are cut out to be parents, they only have the tools they have and usually stuff it up so don't hold a grudge, it will only manifest into your own demons. Cheers
When my father died I was 21, full of anger and took it out on anyone within a fifty metre radius. My mother stopped me with dead in my tracks words of wisdom when she just looked at me and softly said, 'you are nothing like your father'. Three months later I studied to become an ambulance officer and now see the ugly side of the person I could have been. My father will always be my hero but my mother my heart.
The nicest surprise is a drop in visit from my long time not seen friends or family unexpected and unannounced. Sorry mum, the house is a mess I know. My gal Bridget (wippet) greets me at the door after every shift with her tail wagging and tongue hanging out, what more could a guy ask for?
Just be honest. Tell your colleagues it is the animals you are not sitting with, if you approach it lightly with humour I am sure no one would take offence but if you stay quiet they may think you a bit aloof. As previously suggested eat your meal then join them for a cuppa and chat. Just be proud of who you are and your beliefs sweety.
I miss my father still. He died when I was 21 but we had a really close father son relationship and he was and always will be my hero. It hit me hard and I turned to being reckless in my youth but my mother straightened me out. Now being an ambulance officer I get to see the ugly side of how I used to be at times and it makes me thankful for such wise parents.
Thanks honey I am taking it day by day without any expectations. I have noticed some people get fired up on forums though, and yes I expect a few not so truthful people to cross my path. I should send some lovely women some flowers, my mailbox remains empty A rose for you Portiea for your brilliant smile.
This is my first time so I guess it is still coming at me. From what I have seen of the laides here though I can't imagine having a bad experience with any of them.
I find it hard to believe such young people need computer access to meet a patner unless in a situation of work commitment or similar. I am struggling with it at my age but I believe as we mature most of our friends are in a committed relationship and it is not always pleasant to be the third wheel or the guinea pig of well meaning friends trying to set me up. I do not want to hang around bars in the hope of meeting Mrs. Right, not my style. If a nice lady happens to ask me to buy her a drink I usually say no, but I will buy you dinner, more chance at getting to know someone rather than over a beer in a noisy pub.
Only the once but from a mans mouth, I would like to find my soulmate and spend the rest of my life with her. I am at the next chapter of my life and believe the shortest distance between two people is laughter so hopefully girls one of you is the one I have been searching for.
