It Won'T Be Fun Without You

You have to come, one said. It wouldn’t be fun without you, the second one added. Yes, yes, please come, the third one pleaded. I had been to their book club once, a few years back. They were right. It wouldn’t be fun without me, But it wouldn’t be fun with me either. I had been tricked before.

And how many times have we been tricked before? A grin and head shake goes along with this comment. Love it Caren.

Thank you Sandra. I wrote it after someone invited me to a meeting that I remembered well from six years ago, and I imagine they have not improved greatly.

Caren, Memories...such a strange and wonderful curse; a sentimental burden. You manage to convey them so well it seems they should be our own. -Richard

Thank you Richard; this is what I strive to do, so it is wonderful when it happens.
