Stop and Look Back.
Michael Edwards said:
So well put - yes appreciate the now and the view from where you are but always make sure there are rungs to be climbed - the moment you stop looking forward there can be no enjoyment left in life.

WOW ANDY ~ You are cross this Morning ~ especially with MOTHER THERESA ! I am not a TORY ~ BUT ~ I believe she is the best POLITICIAN to lead us out of EUROPE (with a minimum of fuss) and she is worth following ! You know more about the DAUGHTERS of EVE than I do ~ but in my (limited) book she didn\'t LIE ~ she just changed her mind ~ which is every Lady\'s prerogative. She\'s still at the top of my Prayer List ~ is she still at the top of yours ? BLESSINGS ~ Brother BRIAN

I thought the PM was a fiery character. But does not seem as tough as Maggie was. Maybe we\'ll see, whoever we end up with.

Gave me a smile but I must say am pleased she has called it - I might be in the minority on this one but whatever your views on Brexit the country voted and its now up to us to get the best deal we possibly can. Brexit is a cross party issue and it has been grieving me that the other parties instead of working with the Government to achieve the best deal have been constantly sniping and bitching effectively undermining the process. Lets hope that a definitive result will enable the PM (whoever that is) to negotiate from a position of strength rather than weakness as is the current case.

Thanks ANDY ~ A quintisensial quatrain and a perfect picture ~ thanks. If you voice be silences ~ then let you quill quiver with indignation ! BRIAN

Well done. A fine example of the classic 4-liner. A much underated form. Certainly not enough of them on MPS.
Short, vivid and creates an image in very few words.

Good write. Not to deny the value of words, though I suppose there\'s times too when we may have no words, and \'just being there\' can be enough.
