Flawed in emotion and drunk in stability. We pile mistakes and there is collateral damage. Life has joy and sadness. I&#39;m sorry for the sadness I bring and ask forgiveness for my mistakes. It&#39;s the best I can do. Yes, goodbye is hard. ~rickRikkijhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10933627704520555139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311122606628249224.post-30019248994378563752009-08-13T18:25:47.078-07:002009-08-13T18:25:47.078-07:00Erin - Just got my haircut in KY by my daughter. Yeah!<br />Sorry you are going through such difficult times.<br />Actually, I was going through an old (paper) journal and ran across that poem....pitifully sophmoric.<br />However, with the recent passing of my sister, I think I am reflecting too much.<br />Thanks for stopping by, and good luck to you.Charhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13721202924711744684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311122606628249224.post-88265692500394365232009-08-13T17:52:30.123-07:002009-08-13T17:52:30.123-07:00Char, you said, goodbyes are not easy. I&#39;m going through a few goodbyes of my own. I feel it deeply throughout my core, although I&#39;m on the leaving end. I was just agreeing with you. And then I was wondering at you posting this poignant piece from 2004. I wondered if something had happened to make those feelings resurface. Um, ya, guess I didn&#39;t say nearly that, did I?<br /><br />Now, when are you scheduling that haircut?Woman in a Windowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14747858840088922077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311122606628249224.post-89930902931016125692009-08-13T06:36:05.780-07:002009-08-13T06:36:05.780-07:00Beth, Thanks.

Reminds me of the day my husband wiped out the bank account and left me and our baby for another woman, telling me he wished the baby and I would &quot;end up in the gutter&quot; one day. The things I said to him were far less poetic (ahem), but the feelings were the same.Corahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02640568359378959501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311122606628249224.post-82341249724952727792009-08-12T15:47:26.808-07:002009-08-12T15:47:26.808-07:00That is excellent, Char.
