why women love poetry is beyond the grasp of even Neruda himself.
they fuel the fire, women do.

I had a book of Neruda's poems a long time ago when I was in college. It's been a while, so I'll definitely check his stuff out again.

Thanks.

By the way, have you seen a movie called 'Il Postino'? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Il_Postino It's about a postman in Italy who falls in love with a local girl in his village and befriends the exiled poet, Pablo Neruda, asking him for advice on how to write poems to this girl so that he can seduce her. Pablo Neruda actually appears in the film. It's a great movie. You'll like it.

i am loving this film. thank you, Sir. i am pleased.

i went to bed filled with this great energy and a smile on my face. i can't explain it clearly without going into some lengthy bullshit poetic rant. thanks again, Byrnzie, Sir dude man,.
enjoy your day...

btw, when living in western washington i took full enjoyment in dining on the great produce of Chile.
them people can farm some good stuff. world markets are amazing to me. how long does a ocean liner travel up and down the seas around the world just to bring food goods to others? incredible odds is what i see. and the stuff is fresh and so fucking yummy.

chile farmers are kickin ass in a little market in Aberdeen, Washington...go nirvana go.

All I wanted to do was see if anything significant happened on my birthday. Making myself a target, and I'm prepared for that, is looking back to a very early post in this whole thing about the Christian Ten Commandments and the "Do unto others" comment. Being a Christian, I must come to the defense of that statement. Maybe I took it out of context, but I feel I must clarify from my ever so humble perspective. It says, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto to you." Finishing the saying takes a whole new meaning, taking it from reactionary to pre-offensive. From my point of view, it means simply, treat others like you would like to be treated, also backed up in The Bible by saying, turn the other cheak even. Taken out of context, I see how someone could misconstrue this as derogetory, but I do, believe me or not, seek truth. As long as my heart's in the right place, and I can humble myself, putting all others before my selfish nature, I know that I will ultimately be ok, because all I ever wanted was truth; for better or for worse. If the truth denies what I've come to know, than atleast I still have the truth. Do you seek love or do you seek truth? Love can be found in truth, but truth can not necessarily be found in love.
