WE ALL HAVE...'EMOTIONS'...AND AT...'VARIOUS TIMES'...THEY WILL APPEAR. TO SAY THAT SOMEONE...'SHOWS NO EMOTION'...IS NOT ALWAYS TRUE...FOR SOME OF US ARE...'VERY PRIVATE'...AND CAN...'CONTROL OUR EMOTIONS'...AND MAY DECIDE TO HANDLE OUR...'EMOTIONS'...IN PRIVATE/THAT'S ALL! THERE IS NOT ...'A WAY'...TO HANDLE YOUR ...'EMOTIONS'...AND HOWEVER YOU...'CHOOSE'...TO DISPLAY YOUR EMOTIONS...IS BASICALLLY UP TO YOU. ALL I KNOW IS THAT IT...'TAKES A LOT'...TO MAKE ME CRY/THAT'S ALL. (DEPENDING ON HOW YOU WERE/ARE...'BROUGHT UP'...WILL

DETERMINE HOW...'FREELY'...YOU WILL...'DISPLAY'...YOUR EMOTIONS. (IT'S INTERESTING

TO ME...THAT MY MOTHER SAID TO ME...WHEN IN HER 90'S: 'MA WAS NOT VERY...LOVING.' [IT DIDN'T MEAN THAT WE DIDN'T...'CARE'...ABOUT EACH OTHER...WE JUST DIDN'T ...'DISPLAY'...OUR EMOTIONS/THAT'S ALL!] WE WERE...'STRONG'...AND COULD HANDLE ANY ...'SITUATION'...THAT CAME OUR WAY/AND WE DID!) THIS REALLY ANSWERS LOTS OF QUESTIONS...(TO ME, ANYWAY)...FOR I DID NOT REMEMBER WHAT MY GRANDMOTHER SCHONE CALLED ME...BEFORE MY 4TH BIRTHDAY...BUT AT THE TIME...YOU CAN BET, WHEN I STARTED TO CRY...SHE GOT ANGRY, AND LEFT...'ABRUPTLY'...AND MOTHER GOT ANGRY...AS SHE LEFT...'IN A HUFF'...AS WE WOULD SAY, BACK THEN! HMMM? MY GRANDMA DIDN'T COME TO MY BIRTHDAY DINNER...I WONDER WHAT WENT THROUGH MY MIND...BACK THEN. (DON'T CRY...FOR THEN THOSE YOU LOVE...WILL LEAVE?) READING MOTHER'S DIARY...THE NEXT DAY SHE...'PULLED ME BY SLED [OVER A MILE]...TO SEE MY GRANDMOTHER...BUT SHE WASN'T HOME. IT'S ONE OF THOSE...MEMORIES...I DIDN'T RECALL, AND DIDN'T KNOW...UNTIL I READ THE DIARY. (THAT ONE PICTURE OF KAREN AND I TAKEN WITH...'BOTH GRANDMOTHERS...I DIDN'T LOOK TOO HAPPY...WITH GRANDMA SCHONE.THAT'S FOR SURE!) ALL WAS...'FORGOTTEN'...(YOU WILL RECALL MANY THINGS...FROM ABOUT THAT AGE...SURPRISINGLY...IT IS RECORDED IN THAT...'FANTASTIC COMPUTER'...WE ALL POSSESS, CALLED THE BRAIN. OUR FAMILY JUST DIDN'T...'DISPLAY'...OUR EMOTIONS...THAT'S ALL/JUST THE CULTURE/TRADITION...I WAS BROUGHT UP IN. ALL CULTURES/COUNTRIES...DO THIS DIFFERENTLY...NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY OF DOING...ANYTHING...JUST...'TRADITION.' GRANDMA SCHONE MOVED IN TOWN...JUST A BLOCK AWAY...FROM THE FARM...AND I VISITED HER OFTEN...ALWAYS CUTTING HER GRASS...FROM 15 YEARS ON...UNTIL SHE NEEDED...'ASSISTED LIVING'...IN THE 60'S. (FOR SOMEONE WHO LIVES IN THE NOW...I DO BELIEVE THAT IS ...'ENOUGH'...VISIT TO THE PAST!/YOU BETCHA!!) CAROLE E 2:18 AND SOME...'SHOTS'...FROM WIMBLEDON! SOME EMOTIONAL!
