Kate B Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 I'm always looking for a champagne excuse, and now I have got two good reasons to pop open a bottle or two... After over a year of trying, I have got my perfect job in a perfect advertising agency - a permanent job at that! Also, my long-suffering boyfriend proposed to me and we are going to get married next year! What good things have happened to you lately? Quote Link to comment

DreadPirateRoberts Posted May 21, 2004 Report Share Posted May 21, 2004 Wonderful news, Kate! Thanks for sharing that... it's good to be able to celebrate your new job, and even better to celebrate your relationship. I wish you all possible happiness in both! One of my favorite poems is in celebration of first love; I'm including it below, and thinking that perhaps, no matter what our ages and experiences,all loves are first loves, in a way. Best wishes! First Love At his incipient sun The ice of twenty winters broke, Crackling, in her eyes. Her mirroring, still mind, That held the world (made double) calm, Went fluid, and it ran. There was a stir of music, Mixed with flowers, in her blood; A swift impulsive balm From obscure roots; Gold bees of clinging light Swarmed in her brow. Her throat is full of songs, She hums, she is sensible of wings Growing on her heart. She is a tree in spring Trembling with the hope of leaves, Of which the leaves are tongues. -- Stanley Kunitz Quote Link to comment
