It's the latter that ravages the wellbeing. It is only when I feel isolated that I feel threatned. But, I confess, sometimes when I am alone I get very tired of myself. That's when I need others.Ian Lidsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14106994463366766471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2486201151699028195.post-73985254230110552352007-11-13T12:18:00.000-08:002007-11-13T12:18:00.000-08:00A nice couple, Rise!A nice couple, Rise!meggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061112627819270427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2486201151699028195.post-61307244527089292902007-11-13T11:13:00.000-08:002007-11-13T11:13:00.000-08:00Beautiful picture, beautiful words.

Do you remember how he used to say "If you talk to yourself, you can at least be sure of an attentive audience...."? Bit of a stretch on the connection, I know, but your post made it pop into my head, where the connections are pretty loose at the best of times!mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03797484583400519909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2486201151699028195.post-81608999060339567752007-11-13T10:50:00.000-08:002007-11-13T10:50:00.000-08:00This is lovely and so true.Thank you for the remin...This is lovely and so true.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the reminder.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2486201151699028195.post-33606183825244999672007-11-13T09:05:00.000-08:002007-11-13T09:05:00.000-08:00Ooooh.
