Time for a blog vacation break--I will post again in a month.  Thank you.

#195 "Insecurities Do Weigh Down" By Susan Pearl

In my opinion---If the insecurities and emotional needs of a person outweigh the good efforts and well intentions of another person then it will be an unpleasant and difficult struggle type of an exhausting relationship.

#194 "The Impolite Stare" By Susan Pearl

Are people aware of it when they stare?
Like a rude interlude that doesn't seem to care,
Something has caught the eye to a degree that all present concentration is lost,
The sight of something or someone is the new concentration and it can be for others at an embarrasing cost,
For no one likes to be stared at and have the uncomfortable feelings a stare can bring,
Why you would think such a sight had never before been seen, so a stare can seem and become a cruel thing,
Maybe to the staring person it is always new to see someone who has a challenge or two or even three,
But it is an unrealistic expectation to think that everyone will be without some difficulty of who we see, 
Because for the person being stared at has a right to be there,
And the person doing the staring shouldn't expect perfection to be anywhere,
So realistic expectations and education can help lessen staring at others to a certain extent,
But to continue to concentrate on what a person is doing is to keep their focus of attention and that is better yet.

#193 "Live and Learn" By Susan Pearl

Live and learn,
Learn to live,
Living is learning,
Learning is living,
Live and learn,
Learn to live.

Learn to give,
Learn to receive,
Learn to live,
Learn to believe.

Learn to love,
Live the love,
And love to live,
Live and learn.

Be humble and true,
And there is no telling what you may do.

#192 "Someday" By Susan Pearl

I read a poem once that said that "someday isn't on the calendar",
So the things we would like to do "someday" won't just come and go like a regular day.
"Someday" has to be scheduled and time alotted to have a "someday" happen,
In my opinion if we are thinking in terms of "someday" for having special times while these times are still here and that these special times won't be here in future years for us to enjoy,
Then we already know that there are some things that we should be taking the time to do now.
It is important not to wait for that "someday" to come,
Because "someday" isn't on the calendar and won't happen on its' own.
I think wise people know what they have while they have it,
And it gives peace of mind later in life that a person took the time to have special moments while being together,
Special and wonderful moments while they could and not put these times off for "someday".

#191 "Rhyming Tips For Sail And Sale" By Susan Pearl

"Sail"  with the "i" is for when "I" saw the ship (i) set sail for a trip (i).
"Sale"  with the "e" is for when a reduced (e) price (e) is what we (e) see (ee).
