Sometimes when friendships end, its better to make a clean break, to try and struggle on just causes festering and hurt. So whatever eventually made it impossible to carry on, I think its probably for the best.

I love the feathers of a peacock, and they are blue and green.

why would anyone want a mini dagger in their hair?

I have my own car. I love it and wouldn’t be without it. When I was married we also had one car for a long time, and I was hardly ever allowed to use it because I moved the seat position and the mirrors!!!! I can’t help it that I am a short @rse. Heavens preserve me from controlling men.

Public transport is ok, but I prefer doing long journeys in my car, particularly if you have to ferry children to and from places with all their worldly belongings! I guess I could get rid of my car and just hire one if I needed one, and maybe on day I will have to do exactly that, but at the moment I can afford to run one, so shall keep it.

I was nearly raped and could have been murdered on a train going through what used to be Yugoslavia. I was en route to Greece. A small boy saved me.

We had been talking about Liverpool football club, he in his broken English, and me in mine ( :D ). I had supported Liverpool FC since being a small child. He just happened, luckily to support them too, despite being Yugoslavian. We had a long conversation about football, before moving onto other things. We broke bread together, he was travelling with an older brother and his granny.

At one point, awhole load of conscripts got onto the train and his older brother tricked me into going to get a coffee further down the train. I was very young, and very niaive. He got into an animated conversation with a group of conscripts and money was changing hands. They all kept glancing my way and I started to feel very frightened, when the small boy, he was about ten, came up to me and got between me and the conscripts. He had followed us, he had a row with his brother, took hold of my hand and led me back to our carriage. He sat next to me until they all got off. He had either been sent by his granny, or did it off his own back, but he protected me and I will never forget him.

My saviours, liverpool FC and a small boy. Never did get his name, but bless him wherever he is.

I watched a programme recently on psychopaths and what makes them what they are. According the programme some people are born without empathy. They are genetically born like that, and it is nurture that determines how they will grow up. A bad and violent childhood is likely to turn these people into murderers, and a calm and loving childhood would make people who end up as very successful movers and shakers of industry. The ruthlessness is directed in either positive or negative ways depending on the individual and whether they have learned how to function in society and learned to care about others.

In the programme they said that soldiers have to be trained how to kill because the majority of people find it virtually impossible to deliberately kill or injure another person. A person who is genetically a potential psychopath would have no problem at all with this, the only thing that stops law abiding and non violent psychopathic types from committing crimes is the fact they don’t want to get caught.

So, nature and nurture working in sychronicity defines the individual and evil doesn’t come into it at all. :D

I didn’t mostly because I couldn’t work out if these are serious posts for the serious part of the boards, or poems. If they are poems then they should be in the poetry part of the boards.

Or something…….

There must be a time lag on these boards :D
