"Everything happens for a reason" Yeah, right.

NinjaGirl

I've always thought

That everything happens for a reason

 

People say that all the time

But I disagree

I was 10.

Tell me the reason for that.

    So that you would no longer be nine and so you could become eleven. This one gave me a smile. Thank you

      • The Struggler

        No one should have to go through that. It’s unfortunate, wishing you the best.

        • NinjaGirl

          Ok - let's be clear. I'm not a stalker. Just after our recent exchanges I felt I'd like to suss you out a little. Not finished yet, you've got rather a large back catalogue...
          The phrase 'everything happens for a reason' is trite and means nothing, yet I've heard it many times myself. 'Everything happens at random (wrong place, wrong time) has more meaning, but still got a way to go.
          What happened when you were ten, I don't want to go there, but am deeply sad and sorry.

            "Not finished yet..." πŸ˜‚ I don't mind the increase in views, my friend. Is it really stalking if I put the poems out there in the first place? My poems usually consist of my own emotions, my past, or political events. I wouldn't suggest reading too much into my past ones, I consider my growth journey to be a rather large jump.

              I look forward to delving into the landing....
              BTW - Re data collected so far... Ninja sounds a bit too athletic for me given my position in the life cycle, but can you instruct me on the small matter of the construction of a yurt?😜

              • NinjaGirl

                You may be thinking of the Mongols who used yurts. I don't know that ninjas ever did...

                    Ahahaha I did completely forget about that poem, that\'s for sure. I thought the only languages I had used were English and French for poetry!

                    • Doggerel Dave

                      Think You should block me - you never know what deep secrets of yours I might find and reveal.....πŸ•΅πŸ»πŸ˜‚

                      • NinjaGirl

                        If you're self-aware enough to think you could be a problem, I'd hope you'd take care of it yourself...

                        • Doggerel Dave

                          And from the therapist's chair...😜
