Sometimes we accept others to spend the rest of our lives with, but we never get to accept our own selves. Do you accept your / self, for good and bad, until death do you apart? What makes it so hard to look WITHIN? What makes it so hard to ENJOY yourself?

Thanks for your comments!

In cartoons and fantasy books, kings sat in thrones in empty throne rooms, with their jester by their side. But would this have really occurred? When did the king keep the court jester for company, and why and when did he sit in his throne? Did jesters really wear such bright colors?

My apologies for the crude nature of this question but it has been bugging me and bugging me in the back of my mind ever since the 5th book came out, and now even worse after seeing the movie.

I keep trying to repress the question because its shameful, but I think this is the only way to get it out my system, so again I am so sorry....

Ok so Hagrid is a half-giant, and we know that his father was wizard and his mother was full on giant.

My question is... erm... exactly how do a normal size wizard and a full on giantess ... erm... you know... do what mommies and daddies do?

I mean seriously the giants are supposed to be as tall as hills!

LOOK its just been on my mind ok!

:p

Is this a good story? I wrote it myself. It's called "Never Judge A Book By It’s Cover." Trustful comments please.

(finding my family)


Tiny World



Swinging in the breezes
From adjacent family
Unraveling I
Tried to tie
Fray rope flying free
Stained and weathered
Not fully severed
Looking for a place to be……..

Swinging in the breezes
From adjacent family

Spinning in tornadic winds
Relief ahead I spy
Warm air flowing
Through my hair
A rainbow in my site
A final snap
The rope let’s go
Spiraling am I?

Swinging in the breezes
From family of mine

Plummeting an abrupt stop
On the colors of the world
Swinging legs on a rainbow
Relieved to what’s unfurled
The winds died down
And removed the frown
The frown
From a little girl

Now,

Singing in the breezes
Of this very tiny world

Imperfect Mom

}}8{{

With broken wings
raising angels
in a
cold
dark
place

head held so high
as she tries to hide
the
dangers
faced

all she can do
to pull them through
is push
on
and
pray

showing them strength
the whole d*mn length
for they'll
be
alone
someday

In Virginia in the 1770's -1790's, would the established families of the time have acquired the distinctive souther accent that would come to characterize the south in later times? I have often wondered if we could hear a recording of George Washington what would he have sounded like? Like the Virginia planters of the Civil war era, or the British gentlemen of his time? Has there ever been any linquistic studies on when "American" English began to diverge from "British" English?

(not your typical write lol)


Full Moon



I knew
A man
His name
Was Tom
He could
Not keep
His blue
Jeans on
He was
Not fat
He was
Not thin
His jeans
Just slipped
Right off
Of him
He wore
A belt
And pulled
It tight
He thought
That this
Would make
Things right
But, then
He knew
He thought
Too soon
And walked
On home
With a
Full moon!

My free trial is done, and now they want me to pay money. However there is one more person I want to look up. I tried creating a new account, but it wont let me.

I have two questions.
1.) Can someone tell me to make a new account?
2.) Can someone make an account for me and tell me the username/ password, since my computer wont let me.
(If u do you will probably get my best answer)
