Each time I finish an A TO Z CHALLENGE, I think it will be my last.
I ask myself ...
Did anyone enjoy the ghosts of Twain and Freud sniping at each other?
Did they make my friends laugh, think, and be glad they visited?
It is getting harder, what with my heart attack and my blood courier duties, to write any of my posts and ...
OOOF!

Ghost of Mark Twain here.
I just had to bump Roland from his chair and take up this laptop contraption of his.
Childbirth is hard, son. Writing is just putting one word after another.
Don't unnerve yourself about it. Just do it.
Dance like nobody's watching. Love like you've never been hurt. Sing like nobody's listening.
(And if you sing like me, nobody will be after the first few notes!)
Live like it's Heaven on Earth -- and if you do it right, it will be close.
Reflecting on this here A TO Z whiz bang affair is all well and good but ...
We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there;
lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid.
She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again - and that is well;
but she will never sit down on a cold one anymore either!
If you folks had fun visiting, then me and the boy did well.
If not ... well that was Roland's fault and none of my own!
I am the genius of the two of us, you know!

Although I have been awol, you have and will continue to remain in my daily prayers! I wish you good health, and constant safety, may you be blessed with prosperity.
ReplyDeleteKenneth is scheduled to have brain surgery, to alleviate his seizures from his epileptic condition. May 31st at Keck-USC, Los Angeles.
May Angels accompany you Brother, with every step and breath!
No. I will pray hard each day that the Father guide the surgeon's hand for a successful outcome to Kenneth's surgery. As always you will be in them as well.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed every word, and I’ll continue to come back. Thanks, Roland.
ReplyDeleteThat means a lot. I'll try to make my posts entertaining, Misky Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt is challenging but you keep doing it regardless!
ReplyDeleteThe reason I haven't commented much is that I had issues commenting on blogs. I may have it fixed. Crossing fingers.
ReplyDeleteKeep writing! I'll be back.
Teresa
I've missed you, Teresa. Hope you have the comment problem fixed. I'll be looking for you. :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth of you crack me up. hehehe
ReplyDeleteMark says I make such a perfect foil that I should wear a hat of it on my head! :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, I enjoyed them sniping at each other -- and I learned some things, too.

As long as we learn, we stay young. :-)
DeleteRoland, you really need to listen to Mr. Twain. Notice I can't refer to him by his first name? LOL. And he's not that much older than I am.
ReplyDeleteTo ghosts. all the living are considered "youngsters!" :-)
ReplyDeleteYour "muse" gave you some amusing but valid advice. Just roll with it. It's the only chance you've got during this particular trip on the planet
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the truth, Eden? :-)
