One must please one's self first - if we are not happy ourselves, others must wait in line. Hope we see the smiling happy Tinky soon.

Tinka you should know you can't do mea culpas forever.
What's done is done! Put it in the past and get on with
your life. Don't let anyone keep you in a state of guilt
it's unfair!

Gads Tinka, what's going on? Hope everything is ok! Sorry I've not been the most consistant reviewer in the world lately. Been busier than all get out cleaning up hurricane damage, along with several other family crisis'. Blessings to you! Michelle

You sound a tad angry. Keep smiling, stay strong.

And just keep on writing the blues away..

Tinky, I don't know exactly what this means. You are not here to please anyone. You're here to post your work, and grow as a poet. Some people stop reading me from time to time. They don't like a particular subject and just don't come back to read me again. Well, that's the breaks! I don't expect to please everyone, but bottom line, it's not about pleasing anyone: it's all about our work, honing our skills, growing as poets, and as human beings. Having the popular vote is nice, but that's just icing on the cake! Tinka, I will miss you -- please reconsider.

Carmen :-)
