Re: Class of 76 & other miscellany...

[Guest guest]

Actually, our class was so apathetic that our Class Poster was "The Spirits of 76" and had ghosts on it! We had that kind of wry sense of humor... However, I remember 76 as a good year! Glad you got to meet Gregg - he has a good Heart!

Gregg and I met over the Internet, incidently! It was one of those cosmic experiences of what felt like old Loved Ones reuniting after having searched for a long time, and I had to find (over the years) some old issues in myself and change my thinking about them before we could be together. As soon as I did, there he was! We met in December of 2000, but I had dreams and visions of him in early 2000, and one in 1996, I realized later... He drove down from Chatworth on December 17th to meet me in person (about 1.5 hours), and a few days after that, I wrote a poem that seemed like Spirit telling me about him - I later named it "Reintroduction to a Legend":

Dragon Master, Dragon Lord

Samurai with spell & Sword

Son of Magic, son of Night

Champion of Love & Light!

Golden eye & Raven hair

Medicine of Snake & Bear

Bear my Water, handsome man

Bear my Spirit if you can

Bear my Body, bear my Heart

Carry me from end to start

Then again from start to end

And Lovingly begin again

Blaze of Star & glow of Moon

Transluscence of a silver rune

Rainbow colors shining bright

In velvet blackness of the night

Champion of Love & Light

Son of Magic, son of Night

Samurai with spell & Sword

Dragon Master. Dragon Lord!

One of the things that got him through the years following his wife's death (when his son was 7 (now he is 15), was the game, Dungeons & Dragons. I also played - in the early 80's when I lived at Twin Oaks Community in Virginia.

As an interesting link to NS, Gregg had a couple of good days back to back (I couldn't believe how much better I felt because of this...), and on the evening of the 2nd good day, he gathered all his stuff together and went across the street to our neighbor's house to roll up some characters. He was gone an hour or so, then came home quite shaken. He had forgotten how to do it, and couldn't even find the information he needed in the book (which had been intimately familiar to him). This had brought on a mild anxiety attack. We made Love that night, but he was unable to sleep, and we got up and played Tetris for a couple of hours until I was falling asleep at the controller. I went to bed, but he still couldn't. When I woke up at 10:55, he was in bed, but still not asleep. I think he fell asleep as I was getting ready to go run "weekend errands", and the next couple of days have not been so good.

I'm incredibly grateful for this group! If not for your sharing and caring, we'd be much more in the dark! Even if it's something bad, it's good to know what it is (more or less) and to have some folks who can trade information and Love each other!

Hi Rose,

I Loved reading about your Mom and all! I'd Love to read your poem - please send it! I've written several since 2000, and will be happy to share. Some are quite risque, however...

I submitted one to the Pedestal Magazine online, but they didn't like it. I plan to submit more (they pay $30.00 if they use it). but haven't yet.

That's great about your cousin putting the poem to music and all! AND that you're still Loving your adopted daughters.

My Husband brought a son to our marriage (his mother is dead), and so far, we haven't had the money for me to adopt him. Not only that, but I really dread the idea of a Social Worker doing a home study on us... It's feeling especially important, though, in light of Gregg's illness to legally adopt him. Not sure what we will do - we certainly don't have the $700.00 we need for that.

We need to go take a shower and get to bed = 5:30 comes early!!

Love you,

Jeri

Jeri, that is such a neat story! There is a couple in England (I can't remember their names) who had a similar experience. I think maybe they had known each other or actually dated when they were young, then found each other again many years later. Perhaps some else recalls more. I like your poem; have you written much poetry? My mother has written poems all of her life, but never had any published (except one that I entered without her knowledge when I was in high school. It was published in the county newspaper; I think she got second place. Boy, was she surprised to see her name in print!). She is 81 now and twice has gone to the local library on "Open Mic Night," when anyone can read their poetry. This past Thursday was her second time & my son Brad (he's 27) went to surprise her. She was thrilled. He called me later & said that when she read a poem that she had written about me when I was a baby, that his eyes misted over. Her birthday was Saturday & I told him that he had given her the best birthday present possible.

We have another poet (Wayne, where are you?) who has written some very powerful pieces. My talent lies in writing medical lyrics to other songs, such as the placenta song, the enema song, etc. I did recently write a poem for my two adopted daughters, celebrating our 30th anniversary. There dad & I have been divorced for 8 years, but I wanted them to know how important they are to me. I will try to send it as an attachment & see what you all think. I have a cousin who is a songwriter & she is going to put it to music & record cd's for them. If the poem comes through, it will have pictures in the corners of the girls before I knew them and me taken about the same time. They were in Texas & I was in Indiana. There are 4 other photos of the three of us in the background.

Well, I've certainly chattered a lot. Later I will share some bad stuff going on with (my granddaughter, for the new folks). Bye for now! Ramblin' Rose in Indiana

P.S. I'll send the poem later, since this is already a tad on the wordy side.

-----Hi there. Symons from England. I think I am one half of the couple that you are referring to. ine and I met again after around 35 years, after contact via the internet. Yes, we did date for a while in 1966. You may remember that I suffer from neurosarcoidosis - according to my consultant its effect on me is almost unique. By the time it was diagnosed last April, by muscle biopsy, I had been hospitalised three times since the previous August. I woud get confused and would lose days - could not remember them at all. After a second seizure in May I was put on pred (and other drugs to counteract its more harmful side affects). Apart from weight gain, mood swings, etc I am a lot better, but the brain has taken a beating. I do read your messages but have not felt I have much to contribute. A major problem I have over here is that the condition is not considered as serious as it shoud be. Best wishes to you all.Original Message -----

I think he fell asleep as I was getting ready to go run "weekend errands", and the next couple of days have not been so good.

I'm incredibly grateful for this group! If not for your sharing and caring, we'd be much more in the dark! Even if it's something bad, it's good to know what it is (more or less) and to have some folks who can trade information and Love each other!

Re: Class of 76 & other miscellany...

Actually, our class was so apathetic that our Class Poster was "The Spirits of 76" and had ghosts on it! We had that kind of wry sense of humor... However, I remember 76 as a good year! Glad you got to meet Gregg - he has a good Heart!

Gregg and I met over the Internet, incidently! It was one of those cosmic experiences of what felt like old Loved Ones reuniting after having searched for a long time, and I had to find (over the years) some old issues in myself and change my thinking about them before we could be together. As soon as I did, there he was! We met in December of 2000, but I had dreams and visions of him in early 2000, and one in 1996, I realized later... He drove down from Chatworth on December 17th to meet me in person (about 1.5 hours), and a few days after that, I wrote a poem that seemed like Spirit telling me about him - I later named it "Reintroduction to a Legend":

Dragon Master, Dragon Lord

Samurai with spell & Sword

Son of Magic, son of Night

Champion of Love & Light!

Golden eye & Raven hair

Medicine of Snake & Bear

Bear my Water, handsome man

Bear my Spirit if you can

Bear my Body, bear my Heart

Carry me from end to start

Then again from start to end

And Lovingly begin again

Blaze of Star & glow of Moon

Transluscence of a silver rune

Rainbow colors shining bright

In velvet blackness of the night

Champion of Love & Light

Son of Magic, son of Night

Samurai with spell & Sword

Dragon Master. Dragon Lord!

One of the things that got him through the years following his wife's death (when his son was 7 (now he is 15), was the game, Dungeons & Dragons. I also played - in the early 80's when I lived at Twin Oaks Community in Virginia.

As an interesting link to NS, Gregg had a couple of good days back to back (I couldn't believe how much better I felt because of this...), and on the evening of the 2nd good day, he gathered all his stuff together and went across the street to our neighbor's house to roll up some characters. He was gone an hour or so, then came home quite shaken. He had forgotten how to do it, and couldn't even find the information he needed in the book (which had been intimately familiar to him). This had brought on a mild anxiety attack. We made Love that night, but he was unable to sleep, and we got up and played Tetris for a couple of hours until I was falling asleep at the controller. I went to bed, but he still couldn't. When I woke up at 10:55, he was in bed, but still not asleep. I think he fell asleep as I was getting ready to go run "weekend errands", and the next couple of days have not been so good.
