So glad to see you back, Gala<BR>
<BR>
Thanks to all for the comments earlier in the month on the Digest ... and bless you once again, Kirk. I hab a bad code and sneezing, coughing and keyboards seem incompatible lately.<BR>
<BR>
I am far too slow ... but trying to read and catch-up (impossible), but trying here. Thanks to all for sharing ......... Rennie

It may be that you posted "my mistake" in the wrong place,<BR>
but it struck a nerve with me.  My mistakes have been legendary..and I understand and applaude you.<BR>
<BR>
Deepest respect..well done.<BR>

Stands with a smile ~ "Voice Among the Cedars" really pulled me into the setting. Nice job. You mentioned that you've been going through a rough time lately and I can definately feel it in your poems. I hope things will be better for you soon and that you know you can count on the Blenderites for smiles and support.

Kill the Pain<BR>
<BR>
Single<BR>
One<BR>
Alone<BR>
<BR>
I’m stuck here<BR>
without escape<BR>
though I try in vain<BR>
<BR>
I wish I could<BR>
pull myself out<BR>
of this abyss <BR>
<BR>
This world I walk<BR>
alone by myself<BR>
forever.<BR>
<BR>
Love they say<BR>
is kind, <BR>
slow to anger,<BR>
forever lasting.<BR>
Screw them!<BR>
<BR>
They aren’t me,<BR>
they don’t know<BR>
how it really is.<BR>
<BR>
So here I stand<BR>
alone forever.<BR>
Perhaps…<BR>
it’s better this way<BR>
<BR>

Hey crew-<BR>
<BR>
I know it's been a couple of months since my last post, but I assure you there's good reason.  I have just completed my directorial debut in community theatre this past weekend.  Show was a success and then some!  Best thing came last night though, when the boyfriend of 5 years asked the question you only dream of hearing.  I of course (after regaining my breath and being able to sepak again) said yes, and now we're planning the rest of our lives together.  <BR>
<BR>
So, I leave you for now, promising to write more later because I can't seem to find a pen right now on Cloud 9...<BR>
<BR>
much love -<BR>
<BR>
