YOU CAN SAY THE SAME THING IN DIFFERENT WAYS WITH WORDS ON A PAGE...

MISTAKES

Author's Notes/Comments: 

WE ARE SUPPOSED TO LEARN FROM MISTAKES...IF WE JUST REPEAT THEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN...WHAT IS THE POINT...NO LESSONS LEARNED...HISTORY JUST REPEATS ITSELF OVER AND OVER AGAIN...IT IS ANNOYING....BEST TO AVOID MISTAKES OR AT LEAST LEARN FROM THEM SO THEY DON'T HAPPEN AGAIN....SOME PEOPLE NEVER LEARN...AND IT DOESN'T ONLY AFFECT THEM IT AFFECTS ANYONE WHO INADVERTANTLY IS AFFECTED BY THEM TOO...UGH

JOKE AROUND

Author's Notes/Comments: 

LAUGHING A LOT AND JOKING AROUND ALWAYS CAME NATURALLY TO ME...I ALWAYS TRIED NOT TO TAKE THINGS TOO SERIOUSLY...THAT NEVER APPEALED TO ME...

WHAT MAKES A SMILE A SMIRK

Author's Notes/Comments: 

WHAT MAKES A SMILE A SMIRK...THAT CAUSED A LOT OF CONFUSION IN MY YOUNGER DAZE...WHO KNEW YOU COULD GET INTO TROUBLE FOR SMILING...SEEMED RIDICULOUS TO ME...

CONFORMITY VS. DIVERSITY

Author's Notes/Comments: 

THERE'S A REASON WE ARE ALL UNIQUE PIECES OF A PUZZLE...SOME PUZZLE PIECES FIT WITH EASE WHILE OTHERS BELONG TO A DIFFERENT PICTURE....WE NEED TO PUT THE RIGHT PIECES  OF OUR PUZZLE TOGETHER AND LET THE OTHERS GO THEIR OWN WAY NOT TRY TO FORCE THEM TO FIT IN...IT DOESN'T WORK...

 

A SENSE OF HUMOR

Author's Notes/Comments: 

LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE...LOOK FOR THE HUMOR IN THINGS...IT IS THERE...WAITING FOR YOU TO RECOGNIZE IT...

SARCASM

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS I HAVE SAID LET'S NOT DO IT THIS WAY...THAT WOULD MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE...A LOT ABOUT A LOT OF THE WAY THINGS ARE DONE THAT JUST MAKE NO SENSE....SARCASM...YOU CAN SPEAK THE TRUTH SARCASTICALLY AND GET AWAY WITH IT....

TO THE EDGE OF NOWHERE

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I LOVE THE WOMBAT'S SONG EMOTICONS AND THE LAST LINE JUST BLOWS ME AWAY...THE EDGE OF NOWHERE'S SUCHA BEAUTIFUL PLACE...WOW...
