Lustful gaze
across a smoky haze
of a darkened bar
incognito
I don’t know
but a broken me
and a broken you
won’t do
I don’t have the strength
to save us both
and you just won’t know
what to do

Beautiful Kait.
2021 has begun well for me – just published my first book – 4 Pillars of Abundant Life
I wish and pray that 2021 is great for you too. Do check out the book Kait 😊

Two broken things can’t work together to fix anything. Every man with his own hands must fix his own problems before he can be useful to another. It’s true that ‘a broken me and a broken you won’t do.’
Love this.

So, here I was thinking I had incense sticks in the kitchen drawer … Will a chopstick do? 😂 Looks like a candle 🕯 night 🙂

I’ve learned failed relationships aren’t 50/50. They’re 100% each contributing to it … or not. Does it get an easier advancing deeper into middle age?

It did for me as I decided not to give a shit which is totally opposite to being young and caring!😂 I think when you get older you tend to care less what others think and more seeking peace and harmony in your life…oftentimes it’s because you’re single and calm 😂😂

It’s where I’m at now … evolved to a point of emotional consciousness and value in life refocused in peace (as you said). 😁 So true about being single and calm, too. It took me a few years (later) to come to that state. Deep investment in Self – worth, love, respect. I may burn incense tonight when I get home from work 😊

Wonderful idea!😁 It’s not easy reflecting and then actually finding what you’re looking for and either being accountable for it and/or changing 🌻😊Let me know when you’re lit and I’ll do the same…synchronicity 🌄

It’s been much easier to reflect being single … As does accountability. I’ll be firing up in about an hour 😉

Less Evolved / Hormonal-Lite / Always-A-Guy-speak here: Does Primordial Lust ever go away? I think we tend to dissuade it, though not very well. Whenever possible … Mask it. Epic Fail. Perhaps, control it – save it for later – on our best days. But, there it is every now and then … 🙂

We do, we hide it and justify why with work, kids, life, religion etc etc….I just figured I was the common denominator in my failed relationships and put it down and stepped away!😁

See, that’s just being genuinely nice and caring about others, Kait 😊. I’d forgotten all about such things. As common as ever today (?) with the prevalence of Hook-Up Culture and online connections. I suppose we’re all feral cats if we’re let out unattended …

Hahaha! Yes, feral is a good word. I also understand that hormones and chemicals can be very overwhelming particularly for those with the joy of youth on their side!😎

Agreed. That situation today is so unappealing. Almost frightening to think of it.

I have skillfully compartmentalized one night stands into my brain ether….only to be unwrapped in moments of reflected horror and be scribbled about in dire warning to others!😂😂

Love the strength of overcoming temptation. A lesser soul would succumb to pleasure.

Yeah I’ve never been much into one night stands…😎 Some find strangers exciting though and for me it’s the opposite!😁
