Bad Day Survival.
Cassie58 said:
All things pass. We just have to be patient. The good days are worth the wait. Each day a new day, a new opportunity. And we can remember the good days when we are on a downer. Happy Friday Andy.

as a general rule, I don\'t think folk value enough the days that fall between those that are dreadful for whatever reason and those that are the polar opposite in effect amazing .. which is such a shame because I\'m sure they predominate .. Still, I enjoyed your poem Andy ..

We can have times when our \'hour\' or \'hours\' have come too - something to face or can\'t be avoided really, etc. Not exactly always \'bad\' but upsetting, emotional, etc.

Bella Shepard said:
I feel for you my friend. We\'ve been going through wave after wave of extreme heat, and what\'s almost worse is the accompanying humidity, which makes you feel like you can\'t breath. Thank you for this poem, and an opportunity to vent about the weather. All kidding aside, it\'s no laughting matter. May I wish you the temperature down and your spirits up! Stay cool Andy.

I know the kind of heat you mean, we get high humidity here a lot. It drains you. Drink lots of water, it helps.
Nice poem. - Phil A.

If this was yesterday, I understand entirely. By mid day, I was flaked out. Came round for dinner at 8.30. I can’t stand this type of heat. It’s muggy heat. Not the same as Mediterranean heat:) Thank you for Ella, Andy. My cup of tea or maybe something stronger later in the day. Happy Wednesday.

Suggest you start getting acclimatised now, Andy.
Alternative strategy may involve a move North.
This will make room for the occupants of that band round the earth commonly known as the tropics to move in as that area becomes increasingly uninhabitable……..

Fantastic! Completely agree! There\'s something wonderful about books. And yeah most film adaptations are awful. There are exceptions but for every Godfather film there\'s Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher. :-)

Books will last as long as language survives. No two people will describe an apple the same. When authors write they have a vision in their head, and only they know what it is. Once recorded in their book, it will never be translated exactly by any reader. Maybe someday when technology is capable of reading brainwaves exactly and reproducing them accurately, books will become obsolete. Not until then. - Phil A

I too get lost in books – among the sagging shelves in my local charity shop.
A trend away from books combined with lowered concentration levels…….

I was an avid reader, not so much now, apart from reading poetry. I used to love that feeling of getting lost in a book and getting to know all the characters. I can remember feeling upset when I read the last page of some works of fiction. I wanted more. So relatable Andy. Some really miss out. Happy Tuesday. Loved your posted foot tapping music.
