Harry, who contributed a poem about women.

Cindy, who brightens every day

Colleen, who had some sharp insights

Or me, for not losing several of my favorite vital organs to the Wisconsin frozen tundra?

Hi Kenyatta,

it has to be Cindy.

I trust, we don´t have a host we need to touch with kids gloves, Kenyatta... I gather from a couple of things, that you possess a good level of education and therefore ( often the case) have a big sense of humor...Sometimes, we ask too much of the other assuming, they will smile at the most and in the end, when they read such a thing " now like WEDGIE" , we need to take into account namely the fact that we know each other only from this kind of booby tube...

I don´t think or doubt that the person at whom a  word ( joke and the like ) is directed, reacts angrily or feels offended , W H E N   we say things  at a party , or in a frame  where folks know each other.

We can take or gather from Cindy´s frequent posting, and the  themes she participates in, not seldom with a pinch of humor and a laugh, intended to help others, that Cindy has a big sense of humor...Only, to read some certain word directed at oneself and see the latter read by the others,... well we need to understand if the person meant cannot be happy about it or rejoice...NO MATTER THEIR LIFESTYLE. In other words, we need to understand and above all possess the gift to put ouselves in someone´s place, not knowing how they react, we don´t know each other...Kenyatta,  PLEASE   GIVE  CINDY  A  H UG, YOU ARE MY FRIEND KENYATTA...Am asking you to do that, independend of what she thinks reading this, so am not behind points...Kenyatta, cast aside your pride and do it and you´ll be a winner all your life! 

It´s a mutual compliment between members and host, the one hosting, the others participating, coz they like the topics , and surely the host too, would be incompatible otherwise..

Kenyatta, am getting long, I´ll be praying (my way by the way : Mother Nature´s stuff), I´ll be praying, you won´t be mad at me...

And I congratulate that you realized and said this time around:  

CINDY , WHO´S  BRIGHTENING  ALL  UP   WILL  BE   THE  MEMBER  OF   THE   WEEK. ( I don´t recall the exact words ). Kenyatta, you promise, you´re not angry  with me...See, my friend, I have learnt in life , only by realizing and accepting the exchange, like this one I treated myself to, between you and me...Thanks for giving one  the stuff to participate and write...Participation is based on mutuality: so you create the topics  ( on the margin here, NEVER MY STRONG ), and we owe you the fun to participate, if you are good, and you are good. Am too flowery, as a means to an end, to repair or say sorry though ? No, am honest, Kenyatta ...

 I trust , you prefer a word like this, coz only frankness is the step forward or makes progress possible. Whisper and mumble , not my way. And to finish, I wouldn´t have written this to all kinds of folks. Only am convinced, you are the type of person who doesn´t misunderstand things and go in a huff...

...Gosh, Mongi ~ those were some of the nicest things anyone has said about me, I don't know what to say.  Thank you. 

I just had my grandmother buried yesterday and was feeling rather blue this morning and clicked onto that...that really 'touched my heart'   

A person never knows how 'words' can turn another person's world around...and make them smile.  

I'm willing to have that honor more than once

I know I''m new; but, reading all the notes, I'd have to make a choice :  ALL of you actually. You all have so many strengths! and such good advice !  My condolences to you Cindy for your Grandmother's death...

Hi Cindy,

my condolences on your Grandmother´s death.

The shy one always lurks...

My condolences to Cindy...
