Two Differing Moods

Come outside, there's what to see Flower gardens, birds in trees Blue skies above, sunshine fun So much to do ere day is done Uh-uh: Things didn't break my way today My circumstances, bleak and gray I'll take a raincheck, you understand Idly sift Time's grains of sand ... Two old friends, two realities Only one, can Life please

I have the same problem with two of my sons. So, we don't argue these days, we talk about things we can agree on. It's hard to do sometimes, but we're better off for it.

Same thing with me. Can't talk to two of my four kids. They're in their 40's. Everything I say is 'contaminated.' ... The other two kids are saints, I guess.

Life has two sides.... dark and bright. This ambivalence can be observed everywhere.... inside and outside. Succinctly ;put, dear Gershon.

The eyes have it, truly: It's all about how we look at what's 'out there.' ...

As I idly sit... whereas ideally, I was very swift. (I think that makes sense. Maybe... )

Well written Gershon. It can be like this either way. :)
