      I’m very sorry, @daeus and @anyone else, if our back and forth was inconsiderate topic take-over. I didn’t mean it to be. πŸ™‚

      And @bluejay, I don’t mean it as any disparagement to you or your mom that I don’t care for the title Reckless…I’m sure you understand? πŸ™‚

            Okay. Good. But I’ll try and be more careful not to do potentially confusing rush-posts. πŸ™‚

                  Wow, I’m gone for one week, and I come back to 6 pages of discussion! SIX PAGES, people!!! πŸ˜›
                  In all seriousness, I really like Reckless and Uncharted, @kate-flournoy. I think I like Uncharted a little better. I don’t know; it just sounds cool. πŸ˜‰

                  @Emma-flournoy
                  and @Kate-flournoy *in British accent* Your…exchanges have been most entertaining.

                  @kate-flournoy
                  I have three younger sisters, so I can definitely relate. πŸ˜‰

                    @gretald heehee… πŸ˜‰ Thanks for the votes. I’m still wavering on the fence, actually. :/ I’ll figure it out one of these days.

                      Hey guys @Daeus @Hope @Jadamae @Gretald @Bluejay @Emma-Flournoy @anyone-else-who-was-on-this-topic, what do you think of the title ‘The Way Not Taken’? I know, I know, it’s not one word, but I kinda like it just the same. I’d forgotten about it until today, when a friend brought it up in a letter that I’d been considering that as a title. What do you think?

                        @kate-flournoy This is my answer. http://www.poetryfoundation.org/resources/learning/core-poems/detail/44272

                        That and I like Reckless.

                          @Daeus AAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS!!!!! *pounds head against wall, squeezes eyes shut and growls in frustration* I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. I can’t believe I didn’t recognize the cadence and realize it wasn’t an original idea. Urrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhh…

                          *sigh* Thanks for pointing it out.

                            Uum, I’d generally recommend keeping yourself in one piece, @Kate-flournoy.

                            You’ll get a good title eventually.

                              *smiles bleakly* Good advice @Daeus. I guess I will.

                              And I have begun to despair of that. :/ If one title fits in one regard it almost certainly won’t in another; that or it sounds off, or is too dry, or too melodramatic…

                              Oh well. I guess I’ll just have to keep trying. *brave, watery smile*

                                Think of it as your hero’s journey. The theme is patience.

                                  What, was that a reference to the Robert Frost poem? πŸ™‚ Uh-oh.
