Like it is always going to be wrong to repay a kindness with a meanness or to stab a friend in the back.<br /><br />I know the world disagrees with how many wives a man should have, but I believe it is all agreed worldwide it is wrong to have another's wife. <br /><br />Your replies are as thought-provoking as your posts.

That's why it's important we follow our hearts and not end up living (and writing) somebody else's truth.VR Barkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927993233682731113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-53376194833199338782011-11-02T18:12:26.710-05:002011-11-02T18:12:26.710-05:00Thanks, The Desert Rocks :

Thanks for being my friend, Roland<br /><br />Alex :<br />That is a great true sentence. We are measured by our aspirations, true, but like I said above : sometimes our best words are our actions.

I may never write long enough to excel at my prose, but may what I write now entertain others.<br />And my truest sentence - I aspire to be remembered by what I did for others, rather than what I did for myself.Alex J.

I'm glad you got something useful out of this post. Come and chat again, Roland<br /><br />Sue :<br />Then, I am happy that I chose today to post this if it helped you a bit. May the road ahead be smoother for you.<br /><br />Mooderino :<br />Great to see you here again. Writing is a lonely occupation. I thought all of us could use a pat on the back from those who have gone on before.<br /><br />Kitty :<br />Your kind words made my morning. If we are not true to ourselves, we live with a lie at the center of ourselves. How hollow a walk that is! Come visit and talk again, Roland<br /><br />E. Arroyo :<br />That this is something you want to remember is a balm to a bad morning for me. Thanks.<br /><br />Laila :<br />It's a riddle : we are more than what we do, but what we do long enough we become. Good to see you here again.<br /><br />Wendy :<br />True sentences are hard. I guess that is why really good novels are so rare. Have a great day today!Roland D.
