Intentional, but Flawed

Tristan Robert Lange

Says little anymore—does a lot.
Intentions are what they are.
Ready. Aim. Misfire.
I love it so!

  • sorenbarrett

    Actions speak louder than words. Love what you do and do nothing that you will regret. A lovely thought in so few words

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      Indeed they do! Thank you so much, Soren, for your time and your thoughts! Much appreciated, my friend! πŸ™πŸ€”πŸ“±πŸŽ―

      • sorenbarrett

        Always my pleasure

      • Friendship

        Well said; I couldn't have said it any differently than Soren Barrett did.

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          Haha, yes…Soren said it straight, and you doubled it down. I’ll take that kind of affirmation any day. πŸ™πŸ€”πŸ“±πŸŽ― Thank you so much, my dear friend! You rock!

        • orchidee

          Was that intentional. Popeye? Was what intentional? he asks. Don't answer that, Popeye! lol.

        • Bella Shepard

          I join the group in applauding you on this one.

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Thank you, my dear friend! And my humblest appologies on the delayed response.

          • Paul Bell

            There was a time you put your brain into gear before speaking, now you just consult a lawyer.
            Whatever happened to the days when you could make a joke out of any situation.

            • Tristan Robert Lange

              Indeed, Paul. A time when jokes came easy has shifted into an age of caution and consultation. Appreciate your thoughts, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

              πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌβœ¨βœ¨βœ¨Yes Tristan, you are definitely making an impression here with your words, needless to say with the image. While that apple is appearing to balance on his head he is getting shot with an arrow from behind. That is quite the sight, or shall I say scene here depictedπŸ₯². Tristan keep up the good work. This written piece is short yet you’ve managed to still give great details along with some great wisdom. πŸ₯‚βœ¨

              • Tristan Robert Lange

                Dearest Kiki, I appreciate this so much. Thank you, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

                  Of course, anytime my dearest Tristan πŸ™πŸΌβœ¨πŸ₯‚πŸ€

                  A fine write. Nice one.

                • rebellion_in_sanity

                  I am scratching my head whether to laugh or run. The combo of Ready. Aim. Misfire- why did it sound so very me?? πŸ˜πŸ˜„πŸ˜πŸ˜œπŸ˜‡
                  Run, I would. But only after FAVE.

                  • Tristan Robert Lange

                    Love this, my friend. Rebellion, So glad it delivered. Thanks for the fave, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
