Collection

Melancholy by foundimagination
This may sound like a random selection of questions but here's what's rattling around in my brain at the moment.

What do you miss about last year?

What song moves you every time you hear it?

What book should I really try reading?

If you could have any one relationship back just for a moment, which would it be?

What have you always wanted to do and what's stopping you from doing it?

For me?

365,
The Rain Song,
If I knew I'd have read it already,
Paul,
Create/Fear.

Relationship: My dad who died two years ago.
Wanted to Do: Take photography lessons. Never enough time.

I only feel like answering the song question. (Sorry, but I can be rebellious like that ;-) )

The one I just lost

Sail to Alaska & then who knows where...my boat needs a bit more work before I can start the adventure...2 more years? (unless I win the lottery then I'm outta here LOL)

Peace,
