Hi Soupers, It has been real hard to write lately. I tried to write a limerick to lighten up my mood, but my mind drew a blank. I couldn't write a single words until these random thoughts came into my mind. I share them with you. Enjoy:-) Alexis

What do you do when the world doesn’t make sense? What do you do when you have no common sense? How can you laugh when humor is foreign to you? How can you be optimistic when your life has be down in the dumps constantly? How can you embrace love when all you’ve encountered was hate? Answer ( mines alone) Seek to learn new things.And always believe things will get better no matter how dark the day. 7-22-18 Alexis Y.

One must always remember, someone out there has it a lot worse than you! I live by that, and when I am down and feeling blue I repeat it to myself dozens of times...Excellent write Alexis! All the best...Charlie

We may never figure this complex world out. But I focus less on the confusion and mess when I hold her hand!
