Where Are You Forever Going?

Where ever

the "others" go

they will be

 

as for you

you will be where

you think you are going

to be going

 

however if "others"

wish to expect

to be somewhere else

(when they leave here)

why sould you bother

to correct them?

To answer your specific

To answer your specific question: Yes. But it's not so much the going which poses a problem; more the coming back. Good thought-provoking stuff again. Mike

I had just got over a cold and

slept much longer then usual the day I wrote this I was in bed all day and the person my friend cares for listens to religious radio and wow the structure of the sermons these days. Really from an Ad perspective Evengilist today could sell you an empty wrapper and make you think it is everything. Thanks Mike.

As Mike said, it is the returning that can be the problem

Over 50 years I have made and lost many friends. I went to a large amount of effort to find and invite many lost friends to my party. It was fucking fantastic! There were even 5 ex-girlfriends there, which scared the shit out of me, but everyone got on famously. Love is never lost, even when it turns to hate, but the haters didn't come, thank god. cheers, Jess
