Talking out of turn
Shot to pieces

Talking out of turn
Shot to pieces
When will I learn -Moody Blues (long distance voyager)


Conversing is a pleasure when it is practised among friends.
I have been very fortunate in the last decade to have enjoyed the companionship of fine folk most of whom I never will and never have met.
It is in times like this, when I cannot be understood when I speak out loud that I thank God for the kindred spirits of the Internet.

Thank you Wids.
Thank you ' clue.
Thank you Helene.
Thank you Keller.
Thank you Dale.
Thank you Turk.
Thank you Kevin(s).
Thank you Brian(s).
You will never know the comfort afforded me through your willingness to befriend a silly woman. I may be old but I am not yet olde.

I realize with company, I hardly focus my attention on the beauty of the place.
Yet, it is with company that such beauty is best shared.

===============================

It contributes greatly towards a man's moral and intellectual health,
to be brought into habits of companionship with individuals unlike
himself, who care little for his pursuits, and whose sphere and
abilities he must go out of himself to appreciate.


Nathaniel Hawthorne
