A fine write Gold. I still rush sometimes, but I\'m \'getting on a bit\' now too! I don\'t bother so much about being driven, ambitious, etc. Not that I was a dynamo to begin with anyway!
Also the song : \'We have all the time in the world\'. Louis Armstrong?
Meanwhile - I wish I took time in 1066. I rushed, and said to Harold \'Look up, Sire\', and he did. It\'s not a fable! lol.

Thanks ANDY for showcasing Kathleen again ~ this song requires her pathos. I can understand why it complements the poignancy of your experience. I can EMPATHISE not because I am facing similar but because of LOVE ! When our loved ones suffer we suffer with them because we can\'t suffer for them. Being separated from ANGELA by 11,500 miles (and 11 hours !) is hard but we can phone & Skype. Your POEM encourages me to believe that whatever happens to US in this life our TRUE LOVE will survive ! ANGELA has made her presence felt today by POSTING \"Spanish Haiku\" and a FUSION on Languages ! Thanks for such a POSITIVE POST ~ It lifts us all onto higher ground and gives us all confidence for the Future ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN & ANGELA

Andy,
Good morning!
This one has made my cry! The tears are rolling down my cheeks! It is so, so sad to watch your loved one slip farther away each and every day! Good thoughts I send your way! Continue writing and let the music continue to soothe your heartache!

We can\'t answer some (or many?) \'Why\'s\', can we? Easy enough to give a pat answer, especially if we\'re not involved ourselves.
Thinking of you both. :)

idyllic. I\'m envious of my ex who\'s managed to live on a narrowboat for some years now and in some luxury too.
Your writing encourages me to romance the idea again.

Andy,
That was a fantastic video!
I enjoyed your dream sequence!
If I win the lottery, those āwheelsā will be yours...
along with someone else who wants to own some special āwheelsā!

BRIAN & ANGELA said:
Yes indeed ANDY ~ Cars ! I have a Brother who is a car freak ~ he gets one with his Job and usually manages to wangle a BMW. I\'m on the rota for ferrying elderly Ladies to and from Church so I have an Austin Meriva with high seats ! I\'ve never been interested in fast cars ! ANGELA would like a MERCEDES when we\'re married ! Loved the VIDEO but I am a PACIFIST and I think Warfare became inhuman when NOBEL (He didn\'t get a Peace Prize !) invented GUNPOWDER ! I have written to Theresa and suggested we scrap TRIDENT and put the NHS on a secure Financial Footing ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN

dusk arising said:
How could you be so unfaithful???? That lovely Anglia 105E sat in your driveway has served you and yours so well since 1968. Never let you down, always willing to do the Morrisons run or that stolen weekend at Weston. Never been too greedy at the fuel pumps... and now, look at you making a fool of yourself over some sprightly young thing.... really, a man of your age.... you should be ashamed..... where are the keys i want to take her for a spin....

Wow this was an incredibly thought provoking piece, a teacher in occupation does not always translate to the true meaning; not in the way you\'ve represented it here, brilliant write Gold!

We are all teachers and students too. I\'m sure you\'ll agree we never stop learning. The teaching done at school is the easy stuff, regimented into a curriculum. The teaching done away from school is the important stuff in living.
Its a hit and miss game how we learn and what lessons we actually do learn in that way. But it never stops and daily we are given the opportunity to re-learn and change some aspect of our outlook upon this existence.

A fine write Gold. I heard a teaching method, in 3 stages
* I (the teacher) do; you (the pupil) watch.
* You do; I watch
* You do! (without me watching)
