I think that without the dark we can never really know the light, and vice-versa. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat? I was just confused by the sleeping man and what he had to do with Pink Floyd and The Balance. I would have been happier if the driver had given ME the change because I was awake and alert. This would have made the sleeping man sad, eventually, so Balance would be served. I like Wendy's Endings and Your Endings. Your Beginnings are nice too, as are Wendy's. I think she has nicer hair though. Please, don't be sad about that. Oh, I got the part about sadness and happiness. I think that without the dark we can never really know the light, and vice-versa.

That is so not fair. You know how I can't take compliments, and yet still you persist. But now really - thanks Wendy, and you endings are very good. Comedy Jesus was what I was going for.

The right thing to do there would have been to acknowledge the compliment, and reiterate yours to me. Boys. Long-suffering Jesus.

The man fell asleep waiting for his change. Also - it's OK to be sad, even to wallow in it, but also be happy. Ed - maybe none of that was clear in what I wrote.

Is teh message that it's ok to be sad but don't wallow in it? I don't understand what the sleeping guy on the bus did to deserve getting five pounds cash. You were awake and attentive, shouldn't that have counted for something? You really must have ticked off teh bus driver or something. This one’s got me scratching my head.

Although, can I be excused from the poems about the deaths of small children please? I'll find less sad ways of being sad if it's all the same to you. "We’ll all feel better. You never know, next time you wake up, a man could be trying to give you money and that’s not so bad. Unless you’re a prostitute." And you say I write good post endings :) “Sadness shouldn’t be a foreign language, but it shouldn’t be your native tongue”
