As The Saying Goes
As the saying goes
You shall reap what you sow
So do not be surprised
That if you plant lies
They grow up to choke you

A very true message and may I say welcome back, now we just have to figure out how to take your notice of absence off your page. 🤗
Thank you dearest. It was really dumb, but Nev got me straightened out. I had been doing it right, but neglecting to scroll down and see the "edit profile" button. I pressed the magic button and it just went away. I still think it's one of the great mysteries of the universe.
Yes I saw you did it. ❤️
Good write B.
Thank you Orchi, needed something to do on a sub zero day here. The brain also needed a little thawing out as well. Take care!
Re Teddy , Above:
I've objected to the use of 'we' before - see my back catalogue.
So come on Bella, Git on wiv it!!!! 😂
Great to see you back.
Hey Dave, so good to hear from you, and good to be back. I'm gonna do my darndest to Git on
wiv it!!!! Take care my friend!!
Welcome back Bella. This is a very honest write. My sister's ex made up a completely fabricated resume for a teaching job at a Vo-tec school. Every bit of it was lies. And believe it or not, they hired him only to fire him years later when it came out that he was having an affair with a student. I tell you, some people just really amaze me at what they think they can get away with. 🙄
Thank you so much my friend for your comment and for sharing. It may be the false sense of invulnerability that plagues those who lie. Somehow it always comes back to bite them. Take care!
I would have to agree Bella. Also pathological liars, and not wanting anyone to get too close to them, so they lie. Excellent write Bella.

Thank you so much Andy, it's good to be back inthe fold. Take care!
Love this! Great sentiment, and so well put.
You are so kind my friend, thank you!
Or you will reap nothing but the reflection of your imposture in the mirror of your life ...
Beautifully worded my friend, you are so very right. Thank you!
I have choked on a few of those in the past, actually I thought they grew up to be crows that I also choke on from time to time. A great short Bella
Thank you my friend, I love the comment!!! The problem with crow is the pesky feathers.
Honesty is such an important & wholly human characteristic but sadly an increasingly uncommon one too .. A grand re-entrance ma'am & long overdue .. Neville
Thank you so much Dearest Nev, I missed this wonderful world of words with my friends. You are always kind and generous in your comments, and I appreciate all!
Excellent work.
I so appreciate you reading and commenting, always a delight to hear from you. Thank you!
