Fun isn’t always the big things we do and plan, it’s the cultivation of relationships formed and friendships born. When I pour my coffee or tea in the morning and come here to my site it warms my heart to find comments on my page from so many of you. I find myself thinking about you during the day and wondering how you are doing. I love hearing what your next amazing piece is and commenting on yours as well. It’s such a sweet exchange, that I’ve grown to look forward to.
Sometimes I’m lost in the W.P. abyss of trying to figure out how to fix something and some of you have been so awesome to help me navigate the W.P. maze. Thank you for that!!! Other times, I find out, some of you have the same issues as I do (misery loves company), so then I don’t feel so inadequate. When in doubt, blame it on W.P. 🤣 Hahaha!
Then there is someone who goes the extra mile and their comments are always so heartfelt on your page and somehow you develop a friendship, but can you really develop a real relationship on word press? My family says no and thinks I’m crazy and they don’t think I should be engaging as much as I do, but I’ve never listened to them, thankfully. Crazy, I might be; but in love and life, I choose to be me and I’ll take my chances.
So this is a little poem I made up about this special human being I have grown to know and love.
Once there was a woman from the U.S. who met a young man from India.
A chance meeting you’d say because they met on Word Press,
where everyone loves everone or so they say. 🤣🥰😊
They exchange comments; talk and zoom and discuss world affairs and habits.
He’s an engineer and she’s a yogini,
and their hours are such, that they should not have time.
She sips her wine and he drinks his whiskey and sometimes gets drunk,
racing cars and chasing after smart pretty woman.
He’s supposed to get “ringed” but she says why rush?”
They talk about caste and no sense can be made,
of this life that is tainted by greed, power and money.
He eats burgers and pizza and she lentils and rice,
such is the way of an international life.
How do you know if a friendhip is true?
I guess you never know,
but I know that I am grateful to him anyhoo.
He teaches me things, no one else would have the patience to.
Together they laugh and get down to brass tax,
because they don’t have much time,
before one of them will have to sleep.
So it’s good morning and good night!
What a perfect relationship!
We all should have one, because there’s no time to fight.
This sloth eats Pizza and burgers They both eat lentils The Yogini eats salads
For me that someone is Kumar Harsh. I wanted to pay Kumar for his help getting my site changed but he would not take any money from me as he tells me I give him wisdom and support in his workouts, his food choices etc. I’ll never forget his comment when I said if I were 20 years younger, I could go for you and he respectfully said “If I may Cindy, I think of you more like my grandmother.” Arrow straight to the heart. Ouch! Lol. How did I get “old” (I still think I’m 20) so fast! So, I now refer to him as my Grandson. I am so grateful because my son won’t help me with W.P. because it frustrates him, my assistant can only do so much and I feel lost in the question que that doesn’t get answered right away.

So this is to Kumar who I am so grateful to have in my life. I have had so much fun Zooming with him at God crazy hours, teaching me emojis, funny pictures, helping me get my Ukelele tuned, etc. We can lament over the injustices in the world and at home and laugh at the silliest things. I’m not sure what I have done for him but I am trying to fix him up and I have my eyes on some of you. Even though I don’t believe in arranged marriages necessarily, in this case I think my hunches are pretty good. He’s a little shy so you might need to reach out to him… just sayin, he’s available and too young to be thinking of marriage at the ripe ole age of 27 in my humble (which I never am) opinion.

When I shared the poem I wrote he said “what about the moon poem you were going to write?” I knew this very silly poem would never suffice, so I made this one for him to honor his poetry which could never compare to his, but is an attempt. I hope you like it Kumar and all of you do too.
The moon comes up deflecting the light of the sun,
Same hues different lighting,
Colors so beautiful: one dark, one light…
Truth is all that matters when eyes shine bright,
I look in your eyes and you in mine,
And love exists no matter age, hair or skin,
Your spirits infinite wisdom, ignites my birth rite of fun,
As you come up, I go down,
As you let go, I let in,
Such is the gift of dreams coming through in colors and visions that inspire,
Giving hope for a another bright day.
When there are never enough hours in a day to get all I need to get done finished, sometimes I think what the “hell are you doing texting or zooming with funny face emojis and stories”? However, when I laugh so hard I pee, I’m grateful for these moments where I’m free to be me and engage with my silly side, much to my families chagrin.


Please do see his website above and his new song he just featured playing the guitar.

Cindy, wonderful to read about your lovely friendship with Harsh. We have been following each other’s blog since a long time now. Enjoyed reading this. Have a lovely Friday <3 !
ON NORMALITY
◇ – Diamond Hard – ◇
◇ Any who Says They Have Been, Still ARE and Will Be The Same Normal is Lying; it’s Crystal Clear Clarity that One of Lifes Conundrums is that Change is The Only Constant and Being a Stuck, Stick-In-The-Mud, Stagnating Sucks So Very Much

ON PERSPECTIVE
♡ Normal for YOU!!! is NOT!! Normal for Me or AnyOne Else for that Matter; which is why COMPROMISE!!! is so Very Important EveryOne…unfortunately Many of Us ARE So Stuck in Our Ways, Stubborn Even; the Relief when We Start to Actually Actively Listen to Others is Palpable in Our Minds then Felt in Our Bodies and Souls

ON SUCCESSFUL INTERACTION
◇ – Diamond Hard – ◇
◇ We ARE ALL Unique, Some Stuff We Agree On, Other Stuff We DisAgree On; the Only Constant is Change…so, what I AM Suggesting is that YOU!!! Sharpen and Hone YOUR!!! Triple AAA (Acceptance, Adjustment and Adaptation) Ability and Skills; it’s Crystal Clear Clarity that Debate and Discussion ARE More Powerful than Argument yet SomeTimes the Independent, Objective Ear of a Public Counsellor (Free) or Other Mental Health Professional (Free or Paid) is The Best Way to Deal with (Multiple Mental Health Issues) such as Our RAGE!!! 😤😡🤬 , DEPRESSION!!! 😥😢😭 , ANXIETY!!! 😨😰😱 et al so I Stongly Suggest that YOU!!! Admit, Acknowledge and Address YOUR!!! MMHI and Do YOUR!!! Research in to ALL The Mental Health Support Available to YOU!!! instead of Laying that SHIT!!! on YOUR!!! Family and Friends

ON EXPECTATION AND DISAPPOINTMENT

◇ Many of Us Tend to Piggy Back on The Expectations of Others; especially Our Family and Friends with ALL THEIR!!! WANTS!!! and DEMANDS!!! in Lieu of Our Own Desires and Hopes Having Us Feeling Constantly Angry and Very, Very, Very DisAppointed…there’s NO!!! Selfishness in Taking Care of Self and Solitude Helps, there is Only The NECESSITY!!! of Self Care; hence Self-Ish is NARCISSISTIC!!! and Being Single Helps Too yet many a Couple Resolve Their Mutual NARCISSISM!!! while Others Break Up, Split, Separate and Divorce then Repeat

It is fun and I am so happy to read it. Happy saturday
Oh thanks so much.. Happy Saturday to you as well! ❤️
Cindy, your post is wonderful to read. A beautiful tribute to friendship. I would have never thought I could develop friendships with people I have never met. I care about them and rejoice in their successes. I hurt when they aren’t doing well.
WP has opened me up as a person and allowed me to put my old self away.
It’s always great to see your posts. I hope all is well with you.
Oh thanks so much Scott! I’m so glad you enjoyed it and the sentiments of friendship. Who would have guessed right and I so agree with you. It is always a pleasure to see you here in my day! It’s a joy to know you. All is good here and I trust with you as well. Big hugs and love ❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️
🤗 ❤️
❤️🤗
What a lovely writing….that’s absolutely beautiful….touched my heart….the poems are amazing….you’ve poured your heart in the forms of words, dear Cindy….may your friendship with Kumar Harsh grows….everything is love & you both are the lights….thank you for your sharing ❤️
Dearest Navin, Thank you for reading this and your kind words. I’m so glad it touched your heart and that you enjoyed the poems. We all need each other more now than ever. You will like him as well… do visit. awww thank you and you are light and love as well. Have a wonderful Friday and weekend. ❤️🤗❤️
You’re very welcome, dearest Cindy. We do need each other…while “fighting” the individual battles…I did visit Harsh’s blog…it looks great & I’m already following it…I like his style…have a lovely weekend ❤️✨
It’s so true Navin!!! Oh so glad you are in touch. I just learned his first name is Kumar.. so funny as I couldn’t figure it out with his last name first. Glad you are in touch. He’ll like your site as well. Thanks and you too! ❤️
Oh, I can absolutely understand with the name….You see, Harsh can also be a first name & Kumar can be last❤️
And you had it right! ❤️
❤️✨😊
This is the most amazing piece of writing I’ve read today.
I actually never realized that people can make friends on WordPress.
Lol.

This is such a sweet post, Cindy! I am absolutely with you when it comes to believing in WP friendships! But, DAMN, Kumar really knows how to knock the feet out from under a gal, huh?! 🌞
Thanks Lisa!!!! It’s so true, not sure how we’ll all keep up in the long run but I’m enjoying the run while it lasts. LMAO!!! right!. Visit him.. you’ll see. ha ha! we can do a threesome … i mean 3 way zoom… lol ❤️🤗
You’re so funny! 🌞
We gotta keep laughing!!!🤣 Hey, I think we will plant a tree on Thanksgiving as a family. We had a big one just fall down.
That is a fabulous tradition to start with the fam! I love it! 🌞
I think it will be a one off covid tradition since we just lost a tree.. thanks for the inspiration! ❤️
Everywhere i go on WordPress, I see your kind comments. 🙂 How are there enough hours in the day to connect with all the people you connect with? I always appreciate hearing from you, and I am sure many others do too! Have a great weekend! <3 Cheryl
Oh Cheyrl, I feel the same way about your comments as well! You know there aren’t and I think as our followers increase we will have to streamline, I would imagine sadly! You are such a dear, thank you! You have a great weekend and talk soon. ❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗Cindy

Hey…I have nominated you for the Finally Fall Book Tag.. please do check out my blog
Very nice blog! Looking forward to more posts!! 💕
And me as well!!!1🤗❤️
😘💕
Oh lord I am afraid I have to agree with your family 😂🥰
Lol!!!! You obviously aren’t a blogger. You should start a blog! ❤️
What an adorable post and great tribute to your friend, Kumar. You are so generous and kind and you have touched on all that is great about blogging. If I every finish my book about blogging, I would love to feature this story, Cindy. It is blogging! My husband thinks I’m crazy, too, but he has gotten used to it. For me that friend was Ralph. We have not talked so much recently because he married one of his blogger friends and moved to Austria. In addition his hand trembles so much that he can’t use the computer much. Thanks for all your lovely comments on my blog, my friend. 🙂
Thank you so much Marsha for reading and your kind comment. Apparantly his first name is Harsh which I’m still a bit confused ab out. It is a gift and I would be happy to be featured in it. Soooo funny because I keep thinking that this would be a great book if I dared to write it but seem to continue on this fictional memoir so that’s Awesome you are doing it. OMG I love that you had the same experience and he married a blogger friend. This is so cool but then we get dumped like a hot rock when the wife comes…. lol. oh that’s sad his hand trembles. Let’s stay in touch about the book idea etc. You are sooo welcome Marsha.. I am happy follow and comment!!!
Hugs, ❤️🤗🤗🤗
Email me sometime. marshaalwayswrite@tchistorygal.net. or tchistorygal@gmail.com.
will do Marsha! ❤️
I enjoyed your post and I agree that you can learn to know someone on word press very well. In this time of staying at home, I look forward to connecting with all my blogger friends form the US to Australia to UK to Sweden to India to Germany to France to Singapore and so many other places. It is so amazing to connect with some on what seems like a daily basis!
Your friend in India sounds like a great person to connect with.
Dwight
Thanks Dwight! Yes, it’s true, we are so lucky to connect with people all over the world and I think this speaks to our hearts and connection of wanting what’s right for all of us everywhere. I feel blessed and am grateful for yhou friendship here on almost a daily basis. But if I am to be completely transparent, I don’t want to talk to anyone every day.. maybe once but not 10 posts in one day. It pulls on my heartstings, but I don’t have the time. ❤️ Blessed to know you! Cindy
I feel much the same. As I have accumulated followers, I have not been able to keep us with reading everyone’s post every day. I try to drop in once or twice a week if I can. I am grateful that people read my posts and keep coming back even if I don’t always get back to them. It has been great connecting with you as well.
You have a big following and even with mine, I’m begining to understand why we can’t give the attention to each follower, the way we would like. I now also get how people circle back because I can’t get much done unless I stay up all night to make it through every read in reader and follower. We all come to that eventually! Thanks Dwight, I appreciate our connection and your insights always, ❤️ Cindy
You are welcome… stay in touch! :>)
Yes, of course! 🤗 I search you if i only have tine for a few reads in the morning. ❤️
Thank you I appreciate that!
You’re most welcome…xo
Hi Cindy –
I think you have such a fun approach to blogging and your two poems were pleasant to read – and I say that because some poems can be painful – either for being too deep and wonky – or for too many “articles” and what sometimes feels like lack of editing –
—
And both of your poems were digestible and could have metaphors or different things for folks to extract (the mark of good writing ) but I also got more from them because you led us into the poems with context – and that enriches
–
Oh Yvette, this means so much to me and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you giving me feedback on my poems. You know, I’m not a poet but I find myself writing poetry a lot these days. It just pops out and I truly love it! I often feel so inadquate because it’s not fancey with big words etc but if I am to be completely honest as you are with me, I don’t know what some of them are saying at times. Maybe you and I have simplicity in common….. Thanks for reading it and your invaluable comments. Have a lovely Sunday! ❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️ Cindy
the pleasure was mine –
and even with a lot of exposure to poetry – there are still so many poems that leave everyone in the clouds – haha
and I think that all poems do better when someone gives a bit of background – but all the more important when the poem is layered or deep – or ambiguous – haha
very sweet!!!
Well, it truly helps to know I’m not alone here!!! I have to say I agree with that! ❤️🤗
Wow Cindy…this is a genuine and heartfelt post like all the ones I’ve read on your blog so far….its nice and refreshing to read something real ….its different and refreshing….well your family is right about how it isn’t possible in most cases….but I like your exception….I’m glad you found a true friend here which is so difficult to find anywhere….
Beautiful poems….and great photos…
Lentils….dal….that’s Kumar’s influence there now, isn’t it….have a lovely week Cindy….😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩🤩🤩🎀🎀🎀🎀
Oh you are so kind and I truly appreciate your comment Ruelha. I’m so happy you found it refreashing and heartfelt. The jury is out on my family.. lol. I’m so glad you like my poems as well. It is special to connect here in WP and Yes, Kumar, (which is really his last name and his first name is Harsh) I just came to find out is a great human being. Shows you how much I know him …hahaha.. but he never corrected me. I feel grateful for his friendship as I do with you and so many of our word press friends. Actually, I can’t give him credit for my love of lentils as I’ve been eating them all of my life but he contributes to me in so many other ways. Have a wonderful Sunday evening Ruella, Big hugs and love, 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️ Cindy
I hope you find many more genuine people and true friends here on WP…..
Thank you Cindy….likewise….you’re a doll🎀🤩😍🤩😍🤩😂🎀….
Have a lovely Sunday evening Cindy….
Probably you may want to wish Harsh….I’m.not sure if he celebrates Dassera but it’s a big festival out here today….maybe he’ll be surprised 🙃🤭🤫😎….oh…and if you have an appetite for indian food, try out chicken tikka masala or butter chicken maybe….those are some.of my favourites….along with some stuffed aloo parathas or kulchas…oh man….now I’m.really hungry….hugs and love😘😍🙂😘😍🤩😘😍🤩😗
I’m sure we both will Ruelha.. like here.. I already wished him Dassera yesterday lol and to you today! Have a wonderful day! I LOVE chicken tikka masala and parathas and kulchas .. i have to be careful with my husband and the spice. You have a great day adorable one! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
💕💕💕
Every relationship is real and this one is precious.
Oh so true and thank you! I’m so glad you liked it Eliza! Thank you and you are precious too.❤️ Cindy
Smiles: shine them and share them.
Yes, indeed ❤️❤️❤️😎
Awww. What a lovely friendship. I feel the same way about WP and many of the fun and kind people I’ve met here. Two wonderful poems, Cindy. Congrats to you and Kumar for having such a wonderful and inspiring connection. 🙂
It’s very sweet to find these friendships we develop here. Oh thanks so much for you nice words about my poems. It means a lot.
Thanks so much for your comment and continued support! Happy Sunday Diana!
❤️ Cindy
It’s a question I’ve often thought about – but I think the friendships made on WP are every bit as good as the ones made face to face – probably better because on WP you have more choice about who to talk to and how long you talk.
good to see you…. and I agree with you! we are lucky to have each other! ❤️
