The followers and friends that I have never met in person. The people who know I'm into adaptive technology but don't know my mailing address or if I'm an only child or not. Would they ever know....How would they know if I were gone? How would I know if they slipped away? So my wee Sunday poem using Robert's prompt.

I love your invitation. Poem I sit in my atelier. A fancy word for attic bedroom. My former life condensed around me. Distilled, actually. Happiness radiates from me. Who knew this could happen After all I knew fell apart? Hey, this sounds great. I love your invitation.

Poem

I sit in my atelier.
A fancy word for attic bedroom.
My former life condensed around me.
Distilled, actually.
Happiness radiates from me.
Who knew this could happen
After all I knew fell apart?

]]> Comment on Winston Churchill said: “If you are going through hell, keep going.” by Michele Brenton http://www.whynotrachel.com/2008/10/10/winston-churchill-said-if-you-are-going-through-hell-keep-going-4/#comment-469 Michele Brenton Wed, 19 Jan 2011 11:53:14 +0000 http://whynotrachel.wordpress.com/?p=394#comment-469 Arrived on this blog post after doing a search on Google for 'keep going' - I was looking for something inspiring to pass on to someone I know is going through a rough time. Then I spotted your piece halfway down the results page. I am currently putting my life back together in a different way after my flat burnt down! So you can see why I was curious enough to come here to read what you had to say on the subject. I and my family ended up moving countries and completely re-thinking our lives - you are quite right that nothing is ever the same again - but I have strong hopes it can be even better. Sadly our health was badly impacted because we were in a country that does not protect victims of these incidents and we were forced to go back to the fire scene and sift through the wreckage and live with the smoke damaged items - despite having suffered smoke inhalation. But fingers crossed the health problems will eventually clear up and I am hoping my own stress related illness will not turn out to be something sinister. If those hopes pan out - then it will be full steam ahead into a brighter future. Thanks for this blog post - it was good to hear from someone who has been through it and come out the other side.

]]> Comment on It’s a Writers Life for Me? by Susan Kuhn http://www.whynotrachel.com/2010/11/09/its-a-writers-life-for-me/#comment-466 Susan Kuhn Mon, 10 Jan 2011 23:18:03 +0000 http://www.whynotrachel.com/?p=377#comment-466 Rachel, the way you talk about building from words makes you sound like a poet to me. And I immediately saw your collages, which seem to be about the juxtaposition much the same way a poem can be. I even wonder if there is a way to combine the two. Also, I keep thinking about the book A Confederacy of Dunces, when I think about your way with words. Have you read it? At least look it up on Amazon and read a few pages to see if it grabs you. Delighted you have az talking Kindle! Awesome! Has there ever been any news of Karen? Fondly, Susan Rachel, the way you talk about building from words makes you sound like a poet to me.
