Dear Newsletter Readers (old and new),<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hope this edition of our newsletter has something in it that is of interest to you. This week I\u2019ve put together 3 verses of poetry for you that I hope you will be able to make some connection with. As usual, my idea of poetry is more borne out of meandering than working with a clear idea of where I want to go in mind; It\u2019s an attempt at playing on words to try express where my little philosophies in life lie: one of philosophies being that it\u2019s better to offer something than nothing at all providing that the quality is acceptable which I hope this offering of prose is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Until next week, keep safe, sane and remain only at the disposal of those that are at your disposal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Some of us never learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We throw away most of what we earn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We hate it, but at the same time it is something for which we yearn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We cannot copy without first making a pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our failure to take heed of good advice we get burned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fight for what we believe is right and the tide will eventually turn.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
That memorable moment when our spines tingle and our stomachs churn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second largest planet in our solar system is Saturn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With any kind of investment you expect a return. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s better not to disregard another person\u2019s concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The quality of forebearance should never be replaced with stern. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Life experience teaches us when to reveal and then conceal our disdain.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
