Alert!

The clouds are lying low in the sky: full cloud cover with bumpy cloud base. Monday next has an amber alert for the strength of the wind. They have alert everything these days. It's as if they are worried that if they don't give us a warning and something goes wrong, they will blame us for it. Probably nothing will happen. But we won't remember that they gave us an alert, nothing happened. We only remember when they don't give us one and it all goes terribly wrong.

Watching teenagers out and about, image in front of their friends is sooo important to them. When you understand that, it explains a multitude of things and makes forgiving a lot of things easier.

@ hj. take a break, my friend, you sound exhausted.. he will have to look after himself for a little while

@oc: Sometimes - most times - we have to make decisions on imperfect information. Sounds like this will be one of them:)

The Truthful Ones ultimately need no respect or validation from outside. You know who you are.

@hc: As you are asking, no I don't believe in hell or a god who will punish you now or when you die. I do think you might be punishing yourself for things that you have done.

@nj: That sounds so intense, like you could do with slowing down somewhat. Even if it is true love, may be if you were to spend just a little less time together it would allow you to see each other a little more clearly and not the living embodiment of your current battle?
