I tried to be nice,
then I tried to be mean,
I even tried all the things
that were left in between.
And that’s just life;
we exhaust every option
until there aren’t anymore.

Michelle, you captured so much about relationships with so few words. And, it left the woman exhausted from it lying on the floor. Keith

We need to keep trying, I mean every person is different. Some needs gentle touch, some needs harsh behaviour. So we need to keep trying to see what may work.
A sweet and lovely poem

I saw and shared what I felt 😃
Also, I just realised your site name is beautiful, this morning when I saw reader for new blogs by people I’m following, I saw a blog by “Her writing haven” I wondered who is her and when did I followed this site. Then I realised that, oh it’s you. I started reading your work when I first saw your blog and never saw the name of site, my bad 😅

Oh that’s so funny. Well, I’m glad you’re following me now and I still need to catch up with you on your blog. I’ve had such a busy day that I’ve not been able to yet. And it’s getting late now. Maybe I’ll read a couple of them before I go. 🙂

No worries!!
I don’t want that 🙂
I just want to learn from you and enjoy your lovely work.
If my intention was to make people read my blogs, then I would have spammed for real and start sharing links 😅
I’m here to gain knowledge.
