The Power of Friendship

The power of friendship... I think on this, happily, as I sit here, relaxing. Freinds. How I am grateful them and for their kindness and caring, and for their humour that so helps, espcially during some difficult times. Friendship... This is so special. Relationshups and partners may come and go. but friends-truefriends-stay. And I remember how I had made bad friends-friends who really weren't true friends-during bad times in my life. But, I'd made true friends at points in my life throughout my life, and am so thankful and grateful for this and foe them all. So, my dear, kind spirits, thank you. Thank you for being here, for being you, and for supporting me through it all. And most importantly, thank you for letting me also return the favour and be here for you all, as well. A true and equal friendship. It took me a long time to realise what truly is important in life. but, I realise it, now, fully. And friends and friendship are what are truly important. And I am glad, honoured, and proud to be a friend to you all, as well. Thank you (Ty).

Poetry Community

I'd created a poetry community that is wonderful and is really coming into its own. I'd never expected it to grow this much, but am so happy that it has. I'd built it for writers to read, comment on, and to post poems, prose, and, later, songs, and for them to interact with each other about writing and about the subjects of the pieces, as well as feel at home in doing so, and to have their voices heard about whatever they wanted to express in their pieces as well as in comments with each other, too. And what I ended up seeing, for the most part, has been very wonderful interactions with its members, and very wonderful members, as well. This poetry community that was built, called 'Poetry Corner,' is my pride and joy-sort of like a mother feels for her child-cus it is my group I'd created that sort of took off and grew and seems to be going along, wonderfully. I can truly say that I am happy to have this group and its members a part of this group. Its members truly are kindred souls.
