I’d wish I was on a romantic date…
“That little piece of sky there, that’s going to be ours.” thought my father looking up at the sky at the construction site of what would one day be our home.
Kim’s Convenience asks, “Do they treat you well?”. I wish someone had thought to ask me that. The question has affection and no saviour complex.
This was my first ever performance of something I’d written.
We didn’t speak at our first meeting. He wore orange trousers & skulked in a corner. I was the life of the party in pinstripes. Irony clinked glasses all around. I discovered he had a blog & I visited from my anonymous account. It was much better than the one…
A little less anger………………A little more self-confidence Less wit…………………………Lots more laughter A little less fear…………………A little more faith Tone down the bass…………….Bring up the triangle A little less intensity……………A little more acceptance Fewer smirks……………………Just a couple more smiles A little less smartness……………A little more wisdom Less passion……………………..More emotion A little…
@ Ashish: Sometimes I doubt that.
@ shub, blankspaces, chandni: 🙂
@ {illyria}: But sometimes it is so difficult to live with!

i love the dichotomy of being human.
Nice one 🙂

I think best thing about any memoir is “striving”..It never ends, does it?
