Joseph’s Recent Updates
"A galloping, epic saga of the mysterious friendship between Wilike Collins and Charles Dickens. Part literary history and party fantastic imagination, it was a joy to read. I savored it for a while--it's not one to read in a night or a week. But enjo"

“Your life is not A story
But rather an assortment of small ones
Some endings are happy
Some, sad
Others - ironic
In some stories you are the hero
In others - the villain
Still others, a bit player - in someone else's saga
We all are but players
In story, after story, after story
Without being afforded one rehearsal or script
But collectively we share the hope
To bow out gracefully”

Have a good day!
P.S. I will not be notified if you replied to this here. You'll have to comment on my profile or message me, thanks :)

Well said. Interpretations abound. That's what I love about all artistic expression. I see art in life and life in art.

In the end, decided i didn't have to make u..."Thanks, Gina. It was just an observation on human nature - how throughout our lives we play many roles, some intentional, others not. We really don't know how we are perceived by others at times, no?
Glad you liked it, though. And thanks for friending up!
