HE WOULDN’T ACCEPT MY COMPASSION

Today I am truly excited and most honored to host my favorite poetess Nicole Marie from Words and Other Things. Today’s compassion story is honest, raw, emotional, and I should warn you a box of tissues might be handy to have.  This post is sure to touch everyone’s heart.   HE WOULDN’T ACCEPT MY COMPASSION…

THE SPACES BETWEEN

Troy Scott has been spending a lot of time “thinking about the implications and applications of shared perception enhancement”.  It would be so much easier to have compassion, or empathy, or even sympathy for someone if you could indeed see something from another person’s perspective.

THE KITTEN OF COMPASSION

David Ellis and I have written a few duets together Destination Destiny   Seductive Nature    Perfect Imperfections   Seafaring Scallywags and Equestrian Maidens .  Not only is he a master with words he is way smarter than I am (and that isn’t me slamming myself…he is just that smart).  He is often the first one I notice…

DAMN YOU DEPRESSION

Today I am very happy to have Arthur Browne from Pouring My Art Out as my guest blogger. Arthur is known for having a happy go lucky sense of humor and has built himself quite a large family of followers.  He was one of my first bloggy friends and if I ever had the chance…

I AM FINE

Just 10 minutes before getting this in my email I had said these words, “I talk and I talk and my words mean nothing to you. You might hear me but you aren’t listening to me, so I give up. I will just go back to saying everything is fine.” I am fine… I know…

CHILDREN PLAYING

Written by This Old Toad and HastyWords   Summer laughter floating fog Children playing everywhere Please quiet the barking dog Rhyme with me today I dare   Feel the cool dancing breeze And the suns glow shine warm The trees flowing teasing As we sit and rhyme without a care   Knowing this makes a…
