Just because we can
Does not always mean we should
It requires thought

So true in so few words. Well said Bella.
Thank you my friend, I'm working back into it gradually, very gradually.
You are most welcome, Bella. Glad to see you back.
I thought that was you
Wise as ever Bella
I can, not sure 8 should now
I'll think about it
Thank you, so good to be back among friends.
Absolutely nail on the head time, enjoyed
Thank you, always a pleasure to hear from you.
You are very welcome
A well-considered capacity is thought through thoroughly 🙏🏻🕊️
Thank you so much! I agree completely.
This 575 provides a simple truth with an admirable lack of complexity.
A gem, Bella.
Dearest Dave, Thank you so much for your comment, and the fave is greatly appreciated. I love hearing from you!
Thanks for that, Bella. Warms my heart (That's my lot as far as a metaphor goes, I think!)
I don't (can't) spend as much time here as I once did, but I'm still around...
I'm so glad that you are. Life has become very busy within the last several months, and I'm just now getting back in the swing of things. We'll just keep movin on pardner, and see you on the flip side. Take good care!
I'll try. You too.☺️
It surely does Bella, fine advice.

Good write B. 'Now, c'mon Orchi,' says Fido to me: 'Use one of those 3 brain cells and THINK!' lol.
Wonderful. ❤️
Hello, Bella,
The majority of us knew this but could never put it into words. You have shamed us all with this simplistic and subtle poetic pronouncement. One for the books, my friend.
Fond regards,
Tony.
Well said,
Thank you for reading, and your comment. Truly appreciate the fave.
Like sometimes speaking out requires silence. Nice.
I love your comment, thank you!
this little gem is packed full of truth .. I have lost count & so very many times when caution has paid off big time .. a fine example of less is more .. and gets a big 👍from me on this side of the pond .. Neville
I read your comment as I'm starting my day, and you've given me the biggest smile. Thank you!
Forsooth. There's a psychological term for the souls who disregard that poignant fact; my best friend has a vignette to relate on the very subject since apparently folks labeled as having "asperger's" don't follow it. Myself saddled with the accusation, I do not so much disregard this fact as I believe there's good reason beyond. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a deeply haunting poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thank you so much for your comment. We all function within our own worlds, whatever state that may be. When we learn to accept one another, we find the beauty in everyone.
