Well I sat down on a bear trap yesterday morning, it was camouflaged so I had no warning. I hope I can bear the pain if I should run out of chain but I'm back to it again this morning.
It seems that my little non-political innocent choice of words in yesterday's note created in some, a desire to perform a very rare act indeed, as in replying. Tho some could not be classified as sweet the oddity of a reply period, was enough for me to savor each and every one of them. I suppose with my innocent words I inadvertently exposed a crack of weakness in my person or possibly a few recipients thought they were able to see a weakness in themselves. So there you go. Being stupid as I am, I'm unable to determine if the replies were an attack on my weakness or a defensive parry because of theirs.
My reasons for sending the near daily note is not clear to me but I think it works to remind relatives and a few friends that we still are and that we're thinking of them. I always sputter and sput trying to come up with a few words and accept about any kind to accomplish this. Most of my failed efforts are spent trying to stick some humor in the words but at times there happens other words get strewn in but never with the intentions to invoke a dab, dabble or slash of anger in anyone.
Could be a few end up thought provoking, like provoking the thoughts by some as to how stupid I am. Anyway I am man enough to take any bad thoughts that come my way and we do still appreciate any replies we get no matter what they might contain. Burma Shave...
Before I forget, none of the replies were bad but in my never ending search for words.....................An I agree, If this is what floated to the surface, woe be me.
Anger and humor are like the left and right arm. They complement each other. Anger empowers the poor to declare their uncompromising opposition to oppression, and humor prevents them from being consumed by their fury.~James H. Cone
