calm_reflection Strideo “Don’t let your reflection on the whole sweep of life crush you. Don’t fill your mind with all the bad things that might still happen.

Doar my calm reflection is turbulent, crashed and washed away. i spend my days trying to maintain my own calm and reflect on the waves come to wash me away. i have also realized i know nothing about women. not one damn thing. i tried words of affirmation, nada; i vainly thought of quality time, tbd; i gave gifts, small puzzles and crafts; unknown, i made meals for her neighbors as acts of service; mixed results, i touched her shoulders, back of neck, back and let her know that i am here, And i discovered love is a reluctant act at best, a complete well lost. Much love always Strideo ps. good to see some old blatherskites. 250407 ... Phil If you work for others then your reward is the work itself. If they are doing good then that is their own well being.
