Dear Pete, nom, BT, Esmeralda, Droo,
Primarily, The motivational factors behind posting this response are: a) I feel an obligation to thank you all for your responses and kind words, because they deserve acknowledgement; b) not to do so, would be discourteous/ downright pig ignorant; c) I want to express my thanks, and respond to some of the points raised in your responses. But, however heartfelt the wanting, and the initial anticipation of pleasure in its execution, once something acquires an imperative like; Must be Done’; ‘Got to…’; No choice!’ etc. it assumes the mantle of a thankless or arduous task. Im talking post 99/ME. I
m really struggling with this post. Ive been at it on and off since 8.40am this morning. It
s like another version of shutdown ‘Shutdown v1.1
As the Red Lion`s poet in residence, Bill Shackspeer, might put it:
want, desire: ay, there’s the rub:
For with those heart needs; to desire; to want,
what machinator most foul,
doth the brain become.
When heart`s; wants; desires;
become playthings of the brain;
and the heart…left bereft;
only: duty!; got to!; obligation!; must do!, remain.
Affection, now an arduous task, forlorn and still,
doth cause us… pause.
Pause, so… dead…yet…so long of life.
I`ll post this now, or it may never see light of day.
Karen, hiya

t struggle with replies, no rush, for, even though, ‘time waits for no man’, women can always make it wait for them.
