MY OWN REMINDER OF WHAT LOVE SHOULD BE
Words may be poignant.
Words may be strong.
They can be gentle
And can be wrong.
But if you cannot say
the words that you mean
If you aren’t allowed
to let go and scream
If you are told to
quiet yourself so
Then, how can you know
Oh, how can you know?
If others are afraid
of the words you might speak
Then, how can you blame them
or consider them weak?
One must be free
to speak precious thoughts
and wills must bend
to make room for them.

How come you and Sarah got all the writing skills? I’d love to have this talent. Keep it up, Cyndi. You know how to communicate the written word with such expression. ….Although Dan has written some pretty good pieces, too. Can I take credit for his???
Well, thank you for the complement…although, I think Sarah’s writing skills far outweigh mine. I struggle to make the words come out of my head. They never seem the same when I see them written as they did ‘thunken’
I’d love to read some of Dan’s stuff…and, yes, I’m sure you can take credit for that…I mean, we take credit for all the wrong stuff…why not some of the good stuff as well!?! LOL!
And, you CAN write…I’m waiting for that book Roy keeps saying you are writing? HA! I was just thinking the other day that I wish I could just dictate to someone what I want to have written and they could make it make sense!
I read the poem this morning that you sent me a couple of months ago (that mom wrote)…I hung it up by my bed so I can read it when I need a boost…it’s so awesome. I hope she knows how much her thoughts are valued … I don’t think she did know that when she was here on earth. I tried to tell her but she didn’t believe me. And, like me, she was timid about sharing them with others.
Sorry I didn’t call you guys last night…long day and I fell asleep about 8 o’clock!
WHATEVER! I TOTALLY SUCK AT WRITING! Just you wait and see. I’ll flunk every writing intensive class at TxState. I’ll be the laughing stock. They’ll say, “SOMEONE actually LETS you blog on their server??? FOR SHAME!!”
HAHAHAHA
I just ramble on and on about stuff. I don’t even know what I’m saying half the time. I can’t imagine people think it’s good. It’s not good. It’s just self-entertainment. Do you know that I don’t even care though - what people think about it? I just enjoy reading my own crap! Is that narcissistic on some level? Like a positive form of narcissism?
See what I mean? Who can know for sure what that paragraph above even means?
I don’t know what I’ll do for 2 weeks in Michigan with out a computer to blog on. Think Royce will let me take his laptop?
SEE…that’s what we mean…I mean, seriously, “positive narcissism”…THAT IS AWESOME!
You really should consider law sissy…but, that would not be near as much fun if you were being forced to come up with new twists on things…it’s much better to just be twisty than to be twisted. huh?!?
I don’t know about Royce’s laptop..but you can’t have mine…it’s my only form of entertainment, practically!
I don’t know though…I just had this vision in my head of you at camp in Michigan after a couple of days of no blogging with your head spinning in circles and thoughts flying upwards in a tornado like funnel until they explode out of the top…wait…that’s a volcano isn’t it…oh well…whatever. it was a funny vision anyway.
