Lonely
pldabbs said:

Thanks for showing interest and reading- this answer to your comment is kind of late- I don’t think very many of us really understand what ‘lonely’ means unless we’ve been there ourselves- it would be good if we kept our eyes open and reached out to those we feel could use a friend-we might be able to prevent something more tragic occuring in those peoples’ lives later on

True- and in this case it wasn’t just the friend recognizing the good qualities but like you said, helping his friend become aware of their positive effect on others

I’m actually the lucky (blessed?) one- she is just receiving an accurate description of the kind of person she is and what she means to the author-

What Did You Say?
pldabbs said:

True- the poem actually has more to say about our tendency to share something ‘newsworthy’ without knowing first its veracity- if we’re going to share do it with someone we trust who won’t pass it on further, like a spouse

Mi Famoso Papá Frita(o)
pldabbs said:

It\'s a play on words in Spanish. Frita or frito means \'fried\' Papas fritas is french fries. Frito also means mischievous (slang). papá (father) is masculine so papá frito (a) means mischievous father. See if you can\'t figure it out better with that explanation.

Gracias por tomar el tiempo para leer y tu comentario. El poema era en inglés y quería traducirlo para algunos que hablaban sólo español. Ya no sé de donde vino el poema.

Thank you again for reading Maxine, and your comment. FYI the mother, after more than a year, is still having a hard time accepting what happened. Here is what I wrote for the parents right after --

Fay Slimm. said:

Oh these words touch th every heart of grief at losing so suddenly one so loved - a worthy reminder my friend to make the best of time allowed and to feed love into each and everyone\'s hearts. A terrible tragedy and my prayers go out to all that are left. May Caitlyn rest now in peace.

Blind Man
pldabbs said:

Thanks for reading Maxine and your evaluation. The poem is actually a song written just for that purpose: to help disabled people understand they have many ways they can contribute to the lives of others and help them. That they a purpose in life greater then many of us because they can help and inspire in spite of their individual disabilities. Here\'s the song, I didn\'t post it because it was made a long time ago and it would be difficult for me to redo it now.

Your college Spanish served you well. Your summary of the poem was correct, but it went even further than that....that some people say they will do it and they don\'t. They promise but don\'t fulfill their promise at all! Thanks for reading Laura--

Laura🌻 said:

Christopher,

I read your posting! I think I understood the message being conveyed.
When one promises to do something, they shouldn’t put it off!
As the saying goes...
“Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today!”

I hope my college Spanish served me well!

Erm, good write, if I bothered to understand a word of it! Some poems appear in Greek - true! It\'s some error in the script I think.

La Parte Más Importante De Mi Ser
pldabbs said:

Brian...what a pleasant surprise to receive your note. UK...what part are you from, or where do you live? You must have or must now (because she is in NZ and you in UK) feel this \'lack\' of your other part. My wife is from Bolivia and I wrote this for her a few years ago. And she continues to be that most important part of my life. Many years ago my closest bud went to NZ (Auckland) on a mission for my church. I hear it is an awesome place! I would love to go to the UK sometime. Write back again any time. Saludos! I would try to always (from this point on) treat her the same way you treat her now. You won\'t regret it!

HOLA CHRIS : Gracias por tu Poema muy interesada !

Laura🌻 said:

Christopher,

A great write and informative video! Very revealing indeed!
Your poem conveys a message that I wish more would be aware of! That is the exact reason why I’m in New York right now...to be with my aunt for a while (long story)!
Thank you for sharing! I will be reading more of your work in the days ahead!
