Dearest Marteze: How R U doing/feeling since the last time I talked 2 you?? Believe it, or not, I STILL care, and think of U, QUITE often. (Not that U deserve ANY of that) U did us SOO WRONG, but, I don't know if U care, but, I have forgiven U, and STILL, VERY much, STILL care about you, Teze. It seems VERY strange 2 be even sayin ur name, much LESS, "talkin' 2 your PUNK-Ass!! Yes, THAT is, EXACTLY, what U R 2 me, prolly 2 Z, also. We, 2gether, DON'T tlk bout U, we've both moved on, SOO on. Y take yrs. Off my life, holdin on 2 the H8 U caused me 2 feel, & carry around 4 a while?? Not I, U knew me, VERY well, not GOOD ENOUGH, but, good, I AM a very strong-willed person, OR, is that the "NEW ne"?? IDK anymore. When we were "speakin", I was ACTUALLY a "wus". That's the "OLD me" ,though. A few GOOD things came from my Strokes, I am STRONGER, on the inside, than EVER B4, bc I asked GOD 2 "sit on the throne of my heart, since the "Teze-Era". HE has, in turn, made me a confident,trong-willed, VERY intelligent, SECURE in my OWN shoes WONAN. HEBREWS 13:6 (paraphrased) W/GOD on my side, what can man do to me? I wish my puter was up, & runnin, and that I had a orinter, bc, I wud, MOS DEF, write 2 ur "Bad-Self. I STILL got love or ya, Teze. I really do!!
I got your letter and understand you were busy studying and needed time extra doing this.It is important!I really hope you've success in what you are undertaking! Four different cases that are pending is a lot indeed. I am so very sorry to hear what you're going through... The dead of your beautiful granddaughter. Loosing somebody dear to you, is so hard.May the parents find peace in their heart, I pray. May you find comfort too in accepting that your friend is dying, Henry.It hurts... Thanks fro the kind words on my behalf. :)Yes, George and me finally found each other.It means a lot. It was his birthday recently: June 28. I missed him a lot. In his honor I listened to music, as this is his passion. And it felt in a way he was here.That same evening we had a meeting with the neighbors of our block. We agreed to let put a new floor upon the recent one on our terraces.Several terraces had problems.And I made a call to a French friend of mine,Marie France and we talked till 1:30 in the night! On a tram i got to know a new friend, Geertje,(the 'ee' sounds like the 'a' of gay and the 'e' at the end, like the 'a' of amidst). She is Dutch. I asked her if she too came from the movie Michelangelo? She didn't but we had a nice chat. Drank something on a terrace, because it was very hot here!After seeing on another occasion the film Selma, from Martin Luther King, she invited me home.Her husband Bert is a famous poet!With a big moustache.:)I ate lunch at theirs and they even let me stay for a dinner!I was touched by their hospitality! He even gave me his written poet book.Tomorrow Geertje and me go to the Zoo. We became very good friends! I study 3 languages on internet. Russian (I had classes before; my youngest daughter Leslie is a Russian translater), Italian(I had also courses of that language)and a new one: Swedish.it seems like a mix of English and Dutch. It's fun to study it! Today,the 1st of July, I called an old friend, Marie Claire; we studied together for being primary teachers. We will try to meet each other somewhere.Friends are precious!:) Henry, may you find the needy energy and find those you like to see.Much luck wished! Blessings and friendship. Kind greetings from Rita!
My Dear David, This is a beautiful tribute to our beloved Sarah. I love you so much and I am so glad you have returned to blogging. I can't think of anyone I'd rather read a blog from. I miss you so much it aches. There are times when I just can't breath. This is the first of my responses. Just know I love you always and forever Your Zahra
hello dearest George, I put on some nice music on your birthday!It felt almost you were here.:))Did you get the B-day card with the drawing in it?Liked it? Did it come in time? Hope nevertheless you could celebrate it in any way?I MISSED YOU TREMENDOUSLY, GEORGE! :(( That same evening we had a meeting with our block. We all decided to let place another floor upon this current one.Several terraces had problems. And even later that same day Marie France (the girlfriend of Robert)and me called till 1:30 am in the morning!!So, it was quite a special day to say the least.
These are for you:
'YOUR DIRECT NEIGHBORHOOD WORKS AS A MIRROR WHO REFLECTS YOUR OWN GROWTH AND ENCOURAGES YOU'. (how can it not?)
'WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHOICE BETWEEN A GOOD REPUTATION OR A SOLID CHARACTER, CHOOSE FOR THE LATTER.'
'PASSION IS THE BITE OF AIR ON A WARM SUMMER EVENING.'
'WE HAVE NOT TO HURRY BLINDLY, BUT TAKE A STOP AND KEEP OUR GOAL IN SIGHT.'
Out of the song: My destiny, from Lionel Richie
OH, THE LAUGHTER CAME WHEN THE TEARS STOPPED FALLING NOW ALL I DO IS JUST CALL YOUR NAME, (I JUST CALL YOUR NAME) YOU WALKED IN AND MY HEART DISCOVERED THAT MY LIFE WOULD NEVER BE THE SAME!
I often think about you and the fun we had growing up. I wish you well. I don't understand where the hate and things came from. I just wish you well...
