Thanks, But I'll Pass

Sis and I are going to Branson for the weekend, I will check back in and see what I missed on Monday. Have a good weekend.

I’m not an especially deep person
I seldom contemplate the universe
And all its complexities
I would love world peace
But I have no theories on how to bring it about
I’m intelligent
But I won’t discover a new drug
Or invent a better mousetrap
But one thing I’m very sure of
I know myself
Inside and out, I know this woman named Sue
And for all her simplicity
She knows a lot about love
And everything she knows about love
Says to stay away from men like you
No I may not be a very deep person
But I know not to fall into holes like this
At least not more than once
So take all you are offering
For what its worth
And give it to someone who is a little less careful
About what she does with her heart

Sometimes guarding one's heart is the best practice.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend in Branson, Sue.

I agree with kate on this one Sue,you are special and nobody can take that from you. You have a kind and loving heart and though it may have a few cracks from being hurt it is still beating strong and true and hasn't given up on the promise of love and the hope it gives to the future.
Hugs,
Felix

Well, you are as instructive and useful, as wise and as special as all those other things that you cite!! And knowing yourself IS about the most important thing we can get to do - for us and for everyone else around us... then we ALL know where we are!! These things are for the best, and you teach us well by your honest and open, always up-front methods... BUT, I have a hunch, he is just gonna LOVE YOU all the more after this, cos this is what makes you IRRESISTIBLE!! You rock, Lady, and with that I truly hope you have a wonderful weekend... makes me think "South Pacific" and "I'm gonna wash that man right out of my hair" - d'ya know it??!! Ah, we girls and our hairwash nights...!!! :))) LOL Kate xx

This is a painful and insightful poem. One that says a lot more then perhaps the mere words reveal...

What more can I say, but; thank you for sharing these words. Take care and travel safe this weekend...

Ouch! That is a little disturbing, as intended I suppose. Well written, I like it! I did find myself applauding the speaker, once I was able to settle in my mind that she really wasn't talking to me. :)
