Well, you know Paul, there once was a woman who met a man at the well. A whole lot of yada yada passed between them and time worn on. One day the woman wised up and realized that she had left her pot at the well. She went back to retrieve it. Lo and behold, there was the man that she had known earlier. He was leaning over the well, talking to someone.

And the wind began to blow. It swirled about her feet, and kissed him on the……………..but of course you knew this story had to have an end, correct?

There is an old adage, the wind had whispered in her ear, like father like son……………….oh well.

You see Paul, clever had gotten him this far, tricky got him inn.

Maria Callas singing Casta diva from Norma. It is the aria dedicated to the Moon Goddess.

You are so right, my dear Paul from Austria! When you are young and able to … ‘fight and love’, we believe that things will come to be ‘dreams’ in .. reality, no regrets and no … vitriol.
Then, our ‘hands’ get tired … and we just keep dreaming..
LOVE,
Thelma

There is …. madness in the ….family!! ;]

When we were very young, whenever we used to quarrel with my husband he used to tell me[as husbands usually do] ‘you are mad!!’and me, knowing some family history, I used to yell back : ‘in OUR family, none was mad!!’ And the … lawyer’s answer was: ‘There is always a … start!’;]
Romantic words!! The war of the …ROSES!!
LOVE,
Thelma

Nicely said Moonlight Drive. I’m not sure if my family has blood on their hands but it sure does feel like a few secrets. My communication with my parents is not great but little bits tell me my ancestors have been to different parts of the world.

Sure our ancestors must have blood on their hands.
And us,we are here to do our best to rectify this.

This mania of nobilty origins.My father has a site on net,with family tree.So many names.Well,my gran-gran father was kinght,married to a countess.The family lost all fortune during war world .Now,after so many years,maybe,father will receive something back.Not yet.Was really interesting all the stories I heard during childhood about the family,while in good times.Girls learnt abroad in finishing shools.They ride poney.The house was castle size.Servants all over.But all lost.The thing I loved was their survival during comunist years.They do well,for they were intelectualls.I should write a book about all.
