Teytonon commented on: I Lost My Girlfriends Ferret by arattan 44 weeks 3 days ago
I loved this! Well done…: I loved this! Well done, sir. In my time, I've lost several girlfriends respect, not  to mention my own dignity and sense of self-worth, but nothing as important as a ferret. I glad you found it and hope things turn out for the best.

A wonderfully penned vision: A wonderfully penned vision of the creeping of Winter's  intrusion. Too long the wait, but this piece of beauty eases the sting a bit, welcome back.

beautiful image:   Someone distant reading a book of memories in the orange glow of evening, while another lays back to recall the glowing vitality of youth… trusting a shared moment might revisit them again in a dream.   A beautiful image, perfectly reflecting the ephemeral nature of life.

Like the Bavarian: Like the Bavarian housepainter, the InnKeeper is one of a small group of persons that were described in Scripture in 1 John 2:18.  He need not read the contents of Mein Kampf because it has been indelibly written on his soul; he knows it in infernal ways that we ordinary people cannot even guess.

S74rw4rd commented on: LOVE ALL THE NAMES I HAVE BEEN CALLED by joy 45 weeks 20 hours ago
In 1977, when Joseph Barry: In 1977, when Joseph Barry published his excellent biography of the French novelist George Sand, entitled Infamous Woman, he wrote these words about her selection of the pen name, and I paraphrase:  "One's name becomes one, one also becomes one's name."  And the identity of George Sand filled all of the gaps and neediness that Aurore Dudevant had experienced under her own mundane name; as the personality of the novelist George Sand fully emerged and asserted itself, and rescued her from the pitfalls of her mundane existence.  I, myself, experienced something like this at that time.  I think you have also described it here, and you have described it very well.
