I dont mean anything against my wife when i say this, but I can feel so lonely when away from my daughter. What i mean is, my soul is missing something. I know maybe people think i mean heart but think about it, the soul can be so empty too> This portrays that feeling well Laurie, Congrats !
Laurie Search replied
Thank you so much, Ric….and thank you for sharing your feelings toward your daughter..She is one lucky girl to have such a wonderful father!!! :)

colorblind
Congrats on the feature
truly a nice piece
you inspired me to write this….thank you
I feel like a bubble
In this crowded room
I came here to get loose
To be one with the life of the party
But I feel alone
Drifting
Drifting
Drifting….
Trying to fit in
But this puzzle seems complete
Leaving me alone
Leaving me to …
continue to …
Drift…..
Laurie Search replied
colorblind!!!! Wow, I am so touched and amazed that my image inspired you to write these beautiful, heartbreaking words…Thank you so much for sharing them with me…
Graham Povey
Sensitive, vulnerable and so alive …..... We go where we go by choice…..We keep the company we keep by choice…...We are alone also by choice whether we realise it or not! ......... I have been alone for longer than I ever realised!....
Laurie Search replied
Wow, Graham…..You are so right….we do go where we go by choice….and keep the company we keep by choice…. But I think the hard part for me in the past has been…so do I stay home if I think I may be uncomfortable in a certain situation…..or do I push myself to try, and maybe it will turn out well…? There have been phases where I refuse to try, and become a bit reclusive….and then there are phases where I push myself to try, and it works out wonderfully…Then, of course, there are those awful times when I try and it turns out horribly. But yes, maybe that has a lot to do with the person/people I’ve chosen to be with… And your words, “We are alone also by choice whether we realize it or not” really hit me…..I will have to think about that one for a while…..Thank you so much for such a deep and insightful comment…You’ve given me something to really think about. :)
