RE: It's Supposed to be through "Thick & Then" but do you have what it takes?

I don't have what it takes but I have went through some tough times. that second assertion makes sense. I lost a good friendship by the two marriages I had with one. Without the strong committment we had to each other life became a lot easier for us both. The first divorce helped me to mature in not taking someone for granted. The second divorce helped me to mature in knowing that I could make it on my own. The third marriage with a different lady helped me to understand that I didn't have to cut and run just because things got rough. With one attempted relationship that came after the third marriage it helped me to keep my dog instead of just trying to find him a good home so that travelling would make it more convenient for me. The relationship between the first two marriages where the lady I was going with gave the child up for adoption helped to mature so that I knew if I ever did have another child I could be there for the child even though I wasn't that great a parent. What is amazing to me it really really the tough problems that caused problems but more the moral dilemna that I was going through. I found that I didn't need a woman to complete me. My childhood had an effect on how I viewed life and relationships. My anger at the childhood I had was taken out on my kids so that maturity in the relationships wasn't that strong. Where I should have been more mature than my kids and to my kids I had still harbored resentments that were petty. I didn't have that attitude of wanting things better for my children like I should have. I really wasn't mature enough for any of the relationships except the third marriage but still had a hard time dealing with children. My children suffered from that since I wasn't strong enough to be a father figure. I feel that my mother is still making up with me in the same way I have made up with my kids. Actually she is there for me now. I offered to be there for my daughter but she chooses to live on her own. She knows she can come her now if she so desires.

RE: Survivor, can we share some thoughts?

You have to make a decision based not only you but your children, too, huh?

RE: I guess I am nutz

Elizabeth Barrett was born at Coxhoe Hall, Durham, England. Elizabeth was educated at home, learning Greek, Latin, and several modern languages at an early age. In 1819, her father arranged for the printing of one of her poems (she was 13 at the time.)

In 1821, Elizabeth injured her spine as a result of a fall. When her brother died in 1838, she seemingly became a permanent invalid. She spent the majority of her time in her room writing poetry. In 1844, Robert Browning wrote to Elizabeth admiring her Poems. He continued to write to her and they were engaged in 1845.

Elizabeth's father disapproved of the courtship and engagement. In 1846, Elizabeth and Robert were secretly wed. Soon the couple ran off to Italy where Elizabeth's health improved. She continued to live in the villa of Casa Guidi for the remainder of her life.

In 1850, Elizabeth's best known book of poems was published Sonnets from the Portugese. They are not translations, but a sequence of 44 sonnets recording the growth of her love for Robert. He often called her "my little Portuguese" because of her dark complextion.

Elizabeth's poems have a diction and rhythm evoking an attractive, spontaneouse quallity though some may seem sentimental. Many of her poems protest what she considered unjust social conditions. She also wrote poems appealing for political freedom for Italy and other countries controlled by foreign nations.

In 1861, Elizabeth Barrett Browning died at the age of 55. Her son, born 1849, and husband returned to England after her death.

I enjoyed reading their letters to each other.

RE: I guess I am nutz

I like email friends. Have you ever had a chance to read the love letters between Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning?

RE: I guess I am nutz

You were hurt. It makes sense to be cautious. You are still dealing with that hurt consciously and subconsciously.

RE: Survivor, can we share some thoughts?

Your welcome. Before my dad passed on we came to an agreement of sorts. The letter I wrote to him in rehab which was 27 pages of all the anger I had for him got to him. He corrected all the typos and made it grammatically correct then we talked about it.

RE: Survivor, can we share some thoughts?

I wrote this poem long ago. I written over 500 poems so far. Maybe you can relate.

Black Panther
by RainbowSlider

I hear you.
Do you hear me?
I am the black panther.
Hear me roar.

So you think
you are safe
in the trees
and in your houses?

I light a torch
and others
light with me
and freedom burns.

While others
are sleeping
I am
on the prowl.

Back and forth
I pace
watching you
watching me.

Tell me more lies
before those lies
get cold
and let freedom burn.

Can you hear
the screams?
Can you see
the horror?

Can you feel
the flames?
Can you trust
in yourself?

The American Dream.
He who has money
lives the dream
and knows fantasy.

Your greed
disgusts me
and your bigotry
makes me puke.

Long live Malcolm X
a man of vision
and a friend
of the oppressed.

RE: The Land of Nervana...

I noticed a firm grip but she had a waddle.
She spoke very softly but she had a rasp.
I wondered if she could outdrink me.
We walked to an old barn with a broken hasp.

Have you ever had a mentor?

That is good that you can see the good in the relationship. My ex-wife's advice and things she told me then helps me today. It is amazing the stuff one can remember, sometimes. We had kids. She still likes the kids.

RE: No matter how careful you are

I am glad I got rid of my ATM and paid off my checking account. I deal on a cash only transaction now. ATM equals automatically takes money and leaves me nothing is the way I look at it now. Checking account means I may not get the money in there fast enough for the automatic withdrawals that some places think they have to have from me. I don't buy into that kind of thinking any more. I want a say in who can take money from me. Four more months of dealing with garnishment. When the court can take from you it is called legal withdrawal but when people other than the court do it to you it is called stealing and pick pocketing. Illegal is just a sick bird in my way of thinking. The American mascot is a bald eagle and that bird is getting sicker every day. Direct deposit seems convenient but you have to pay for that convenience by not being able to have the cash in your hands first. Credit cards are a convenience that comes with a monthly charge. Checks can bounce if you get behind and those hot checks cost you when you have to pay for them. Insufficient funds cost a extra charge at the bank. Money used to be back with gold and silver certificates. People did not even trust paper money at one time. People would bite metal money at one time. Trust is a real issue. Money has in God we trust. Some people don't even believe in God so what is left of trust? Faith? Belief? Barter is what started it all when it comes to money.

RE: See you all.....

Ignore them back if they ignore you, Daniel. That will teach them to ignore you.

RE: No matter how careful you are

Nothing can be done. Dayum. Sorry to hear that.

RE: No matter how careful you are

Aw, man that sucks, Earl. I hope you can talk to the bank about it. Explain what has happen and that you didn't authorize the withdrawal.

RE: whos all on tonight

Its his day off and he is so used to working overtime and just doesn't know how to unwind.

RE: If You dont mind I'd like to ask for prayer

Sending thoughts of good health and comfort your way.

RE: whos all on tonight

I am just cheering up the grim reaper. So how are you doing?

Grim Reaper's Day Off
by RainbowSlider

You never take a day off.
Come on, let's live a little.
Have a big swig of Smirnoff.
Try to meet me in the middle.

You look depressing in black.
Here, let me sharpen your blade.
And, geez, take off that sack.
You just need to get laid.

Here, have another drink.
Can't you at least try to grin?
Its not as bad as you think.
I think you're a good friend.

You think your job stinks?
Is it really all that bad?
Here, have some more drinks.
Why are you always so sad?

Aw, come on lets party, dude.
You can collect souls, tomorrow.
Let someone else be rude.
You just have too much sorrow.
