We all need mercy, help, hope and love. Knowing this pretty much ensures that you will get it.

Hang in there. Things always get better, just when we think they won’t.

I think you’re on to something, Connie. Sometimes it’s easier to chase the ones you never get than the ones who stop and let you catch them. Maybe this is why dogs chase cars

I love this blog entry Angela.
And sigh, “people you love who love you back”.
So tempting to keep longing for someone’s love,
so familiar the struggle. For some of us it’s a lot more familiar than really being loved and really knowing how to connect and be vulnerable.

What I love most about this post is I feel like I came away with it really knowing how you were feeling. It was great!

And thanks for your compliments last week. I think you heap too much praise my way, girl.

In Key West you can wear white all year.

Here’s what I’ve decided about soul mates: People don’t necessarily have a single soul mate. They might, that it, but they might also have a soupl mate for a particular time in their life and who fills a particular need (or many needs). Someitmes you find one who is a good enough fit to stay forever. Sometimes you lose that connection and move along to another. But I think you have to be open to that soul mate connection to find them. That’s my take on it anyway.

A few other comments: I want a Dishes Fairy, too, who will also just do general housework. And pick my kids up from school. And I don’t own a pair of white pants (or shoes) so the “rule” doesn’t affect me personally. But wear what you want to, I say.

Thanks, Ang. I’m still in touch with Miss New York, so you never know, but for now I’ll continue to meet and interact with women in my neck of the woods, and she’ll be doing the same on her end. We’ve done this dance before, after all, when there was a lot less at stake, and the big loser at the time was my heart. So I have to be a little more careful this time, and, dare I say it, a little more practical. Not very romantic, I know, but as Don Henley, “sometimes love just ain’t enough”

Not my usual post, but I’m sure you understand

“I’m convinced that some of us (if not all of us) have wild hearts and that they’re beautiful.”

I sure that it is all of us.

TW ~ Oh, yes. Wild spins around the compass are one of my specialties! I’m glad to hear that you gave it a shot. (I did something similar about five years ago with very similar results.) I hope you’re feeling better as I know how hard that can be.

Ian ~ Thank you, dear one. I appreciate you. It’s honest, and I don’t particularly like being one of those people who feels things deeply, but it is what it is, so I guess I’d better stop fighting it and learn how to live with it, yes? Thanks for your encouragement.
