Posted by To all those souls who feel alone and hopeless. You are not alone. So, hold on to your hope.
You’re not the only one
You’re not the only one with a song that needs sung
You’re not the only one coming undone
***
You aren’t alone
But there are times when you can’t just pick up the phone
Times when you just can’t win
You aren’t the only one — no need to defend
***
You aren’t crazy
Can’t get out of bed — isn’t because you’re lazy
Day after day — all seem kind of hazy
You aren’t the only one who feels like life ain’t easy
***
You’re not the only one
You’re not the only one running scared — No, now
You are the one to be feared!
You Lil Dickens 
i am a manic man
panic girl cos i am incomplete and hungry
shoe s untied and self decried
denial the cross and repeat
rinse lather
and tirades are laced with litanies of yesterdaze
ha!

Loneliness is a strange parody. There are times when you wish the world leave you alone. Then when you are having problems and worries you can’t find someone to listen to you. I know at times I’ll bury myself in music to keep my mind sane and in working order.
Before moving to Texas I had a few friends to count on. People I grew up with and friends mad through work or sports. The Navy was long ago and those friends slowly disappeared. Now many years and loneliness seems a part of life. This format gives me a way to vent, comment on others thoughts and just plain complain. TV, video games, online games, puzzles keep the mind busy but not satisfied. Social media these days isn’t the amazing format people thought they invented. It has become a country splitting format that people use to spread hate and lies and my cause horrifying things to come unless we as a people can stop the bad things working in todays society.
I could go on, but, I’ll save it for rainy day. Oh wait, it is a rainy day!
But, I shall save ,my “thoughts” for later.
The Old Man.

Thank you, my dear friend, Bill. I couldn’t agree more, I am not a fan of social media. Unimpressed, for sure. Love reading your thoughts and comments. Thank you! XOXO, Eleanor
