POST 15. All the secrets so far.
 
If you are one of us
you know you don't fit in
you struggle to conform
you hesitate to begin

We don't get the them, the
ones over there
the minions of the masses
controlled by stupid men

Thank God you found us and
now you know you are not alone
we will help each other through and
in helping give us more

You and I, we and us all together
marching to the odd ball drummer while
they goose step hypnotized

We take the baton and go in front
down alleys dark and blind
they follow us cause it is what they do
when you control their mind

You have been seeking, looking
knowing we were there,
somewhere and perhaps your inner voice
found our binaural beat
buried in the sky
and you rejoiced when we appeared
at just the perfect time

We knew that you were coming
our bread crumbs insured your path
your random steps now locked in
you've found a home at last

gingerbread walls and candied roof
you can't get enough
you eat it up, beg for more
so we gladly sell you stuff.

Gordon, I've always been an "oddball"...

But maybe there's a "home" for "oddballs" like us in this here odd bunch... :)

Many think that starting your own business is "crazy"...

But... in reality, today... maybe it's the only sane option!!

Best wishes,

Dien

When the oddball finds his tribe,
 
the Chief gets more feathers for his headdress.

The need to belong, is one of the most powerful of desires
and playing to that need via understanding, empathy and
shared frustration (with a solution to boot)...

is THE strategy used by IM gurus big and small.

It is probably more of a secret of influence than anything else.

Not sure starting a business helps, but, joining in and taking advantage of
the fast growing underground economy could be.

Writers have always been on the fringe of society in many ways... sharing our deep-seated stories, emotions and fantasies with the rest of the world so we can all feel connected. Yet, the act is so isolating at time.

I used to read this forum a long time ago and it just came back into my head recently and I'm so pleasantly surprised to see it's still here and active!

Hi Gordon, hope you've been well :)
