no
point
being bitter
ungenerous and tight
if you cannot be manipulative
kindness will be mistaken for stupidity
so just settle for being walked over
used and dismissed as a half wit
it does not matter
there are seven billion people
floating about on this planet
if you are lucky
you might find one
you can relate to
if not
there's always a goldfish
yes sometimes we feel this way that our kindness is trampled and mistaken for stupidity. I love that you say there's always a goldfish.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for goldfish in a bowl.
DeleteI have way too kind more than a few times! Your post is clever, creative and very WOW-POW!
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen.

ReplyDeleteWho is talking about husbands?
DeleteSomeone once said: "Be wise as serpents and as pure as doves."
ReplyDeleteAnd never underestimate goldfish. They are very wise companions and good friends. Your's looks a little bit miserable. Are you taking him for regular walks?
Yes and that may be the problem:)
Delete:)This is indeed a nice read!!
ReplyDeleteI feel the goldfish are getting a bad press here but, overall, I would put my money on a dog instead.
ReplyDeleteoh hahah sometimes the only one who will listen is the goldfish that cannot leave the room!
