    can't believe I never noticed there was a thread for sadness here.

    This is a sad poem. But it also makes me happy.

    When You Are Old by William Butler Yeats

    When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
    And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
    And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
    Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

    How many loved your moments of glad grace,
    And loved your beauty with love false or true,
    But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
    And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

    And bending down beside the glowing bars,
    Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
    And paced upon the mountains overhead
    And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

    Sorry to hear your worries Moon, with any luck it's nothing serious, just a freaky glitch of some sort. [​IMG]

    Thanks, Deja! I did write the conclusion to this in the happiness is thread, as the outcome was good....and no worries. My heart is good...all of my levels good...blood pressure low....everything good....It was a fluke...Excellent doctor concludes it was probably plaque which I have very little of anyway.
    I said on the happiness thread that i love brilliant people....but what i meant was that I love people who know their field like the doctor I was lucky to see today. He thought out of the box and was an intuitive thinker, a good listener, besides knowing his shit inside and out...no schooling can teach all of that that...and to boot, he was very kind, and that made him very special as a doctor and human being. I raved about him when I left and all of the receptionsists and nurses said they all loved him, too.....

    I was lucky to see him....

    I do not run to the doctor for much and did not want to go in the first place, but after reading on the internet....going blind in one eye is very serious...see someone right away...and then talking to someone at the eye doctor's office...when I said Well, I am ok now.....they insisted i come in anyway....

    but I had happy news today...so it was a glitch of some weird kind as you said. :)

    I am sorry about your neighbor, Aerianne.
    Cancer is not good news for anyone.

    Oh, no! all this time?

    Hey,. I was born a happy person.....my basic nature is happy....Sometimes i get stuck cursing the darkness rather than lighting a candle, though....as some times it is so hard to see any way through....but I am really trying.

    Thank you.

    My intuition says she may not beat it this time. She's roughly 50-55 year old.

    My dreams last night or early this morning....all about people who are gone....My dad is a zombie crying by his dieing mother...i jump on her and try to shake her back to life.....to help her...to help him...She becomes my mother who gets up and is dead and is truly a zombie but walks and almost topples over....Then I am on some airplane flight that never ends...then i woke up.....I never dream much about my parents much....and there they both were.....and nothing was there there.....

    I did wake feeling Stan's dead mother around me and comforting me, though. i told Stan. he told me she loved me. I felt she did today. I asked him if he felt her around, and he said not now...but probably because she is surrounding me now.....but sometimes he feels her around. i don't feel my parents around ever. :(
    Stan's mom was a comfort to me today somehow....maybe just her memory...IDK

    i find nostalgia kind of sadness. i don't know if that's just me, because a lot of people seem like the other way.

    O/D-have you ever seen the process by which teabags are made-and-filled?
    I used to transport them by the truckload,so I got to watch on a few occasions.

    HA-y'call THAT stuff tea leafs???

    No mate-I agree about making tea in a pot-but with leafs,NOT with dust,bruv!

    Ooooh...I just came over all English-stir your tea anti-clockwise...and pass the duchy to the left-hand side...

    Sadness for me was this story today, which had me so outraged that...I wished someone would cut off the poacher's horn and shove it down their throat!


    Poor rhino, not even safe in the zoo. i am so sad and sorry for you....:(

    These kinds of crimes are UNFORGIVEABLE!

    Sadness is yesterday...

    Coming home and traffic blocked up for miles at a crawl in order to get home 5 miles.....Learning that a steak house restaurant shot into flames from a propane explosion...apparently flames shot so high...and was trying to get home 2 hours after this occurred......and many roads were blocked off. It was very difficult...The area is still blocked off....no one got hurt. Owner of restaurant escaped, luckily and will not re open...but the sadness was learning of an apartment upstairs of the restaurant where a girl lived. She was not home, but her dog was and died...:(
    i was so sad yesterday because of this news...and am trying to make myself happier today somehow.

    Of course, it was my mom's birthday yesterday, too....:(
    Stan thinks that was mainly at the root of it yesterday, where I just turned off the world after I got home, and pulled the covers over my head for hours. did not even take dogs, even though I had every intention to.

    They are investigating the fire that happened to that steak house here now....Funny, the restaurant was closed at the time, and only the owner was there and got out unharmed......but that poor dog died....and I have been trying to find out what kind of dog it was, and they have not said any details about the dog. they should!.....as I am haunted by that so much....and feel so sad for that dog....

    I do not care about the steak house itself.
