We need to sign up for Zumba, organise a few poetry reading(s) locally and go to some London ones too. I'll nag you to go on a residential writing course if you'd like to do that. There are also some local writing groups I think it may be good to introduce you to - plus a few salon style meetings chez moi. How does that sound? Will it help? Happiness? Far too big for a comment box. Box of wine may help facilitate that particular philosophical discussion though! I'll stock up my wine cellar shall I? ;-)
I have not seen the plays in town, Only the computer printouts. I have not read the latest books, Only the Wall Street Journal. I have not heard a bird sing this year, Only the ringing of the phones. I have not taken a walk anywhere, But from the parking lot to my office. I have not shared a feeling in years, But my thoughts are known to all. I have not listened to my own needs, But what I want I get. I have not shed a tear in ages. I have arrived. Is this where I was going?
I was much further out than you thought, and not waving but drowning. Complicated, intense,stressed, tired. Difficult to get to know and hard to love. Rarely admit vulnerability - never accept help. Standing note to self: "must try harder".
