Yet More Shade

 I've been on a tear lately, throwing out more of these Evershade lines (see HERE). They just really help me in some sort of way. So, here are some more!


The first is from Will Rogers via Cafe Camille. (why do so many of these people have such wonderfully witty profile names? Maybe there's a string I can do on that!)

Evershading More

Yet another entry for the ole Evershade file. These are pretty decent if you ask me. Just like all of them (see HERE).

Evershad-ed Even More

As I continue to add to this ever growing list of great, romantic, lines I catalog them here in my Evershade label (see HERE) and I think they're always worth reading again. 

That being said, I've got some new ones . . . and I'm looking forward to reading them again too soon!



This first is from "Just Kate" which is a terrific profile name. And it's a terrific line.

In my heart we were a lifetime
In yours we were simply a moment

Ah, man! That hits me! Does it you? It shows the disparity between expectations.

Tiger-Tom via Top Shelf Bourbon Elf wrote this next one, and I can't agree with the sentiment more.

If you have to beg someone to be in your life,
They don't deserve to be there.

Damn skippy! 

And finally, since these things tend to come in threes, I have this one from CoffeeCurves.

Just once
Show me
What a tender touch feels like
Just once
Show me
What it's like to keep your word
Just once
Show me
What it feels like to hold and be held
Just once
Show me
What it feels like when someone stays


Evershade, evershades , ever shade, ever shades, shades of Betsy


A Bit More Evershade

HA! Although this isn't typical for the Evershade series I like (see HERE), this did make me laugh. I've always loved Helen Mirren. She always looks like she's having a good time in life, and I would love to think that others look at me and think the same thing. Maybe I need to channel my inner Helen Mirren spirit more often.



There are couple more I've found that do fit the series a bit better.

More For The Evershade File

So, anyone who reads this knows just how much I love these Evershade posts (see HERE). I go about my day looking for those things that speak to me . . . Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, books I read, Reddit. They're out there and they all speak to me. I love em. And I contribute my own to the universe and to this blog. 


Princess Consuela Banana-Hammock, who has an amazing profile name, wrote about the best feeling in the world. We've all felt that haven't we? And when we do, it's like nothing else. 

The best feeling in the world is to be with someone who chooses you every day, not just when they are in a mood.

You Might Be Getting Tired . . .

 Although you might be getting tired of these little dittys and poems, I never do. They show up on my twitter string and Boom! They just grab me. What better place to catalog them then here (and HERE). 


This first is fun. Makes me think of what Julie Roberts' character says to the Huge Grant character in Notting Hill. "I'm just a girl, standing infront of a boy, asking him to love her." Great stuff there. This too from Leaf.

I'm just a guy . . . waiting for a girl . . . to miss me too

A lot More for the Evershade Label

One of my favorite posts (and most likely the most therapeutic) are these that I label Evershade (see HERE). Why? I don't know. They express for me what I feel so well. Hope you like these!

This first is from AwayfromDevine, a great name, and a great sentiment. Eyes are certainly the windows to the souls. I have another where I mention eyes (HERE) this one is right up there too.

The first thing I do when I look into your eyes is, that I admit that I am lost

Even More

No intro for these, they just say what I feel . . . see the rest HERE.

Even More for the Series

 I ran into these and felt compelled to share. They're a part of that regular series I have posted to over the years (see HERE). 

This first is telling to me. "Nothing you do will ever be enough?" I've felt that.

When your best efforts aren't enough . . . nothing you do will ever be enough.

Some More that Hit Me in Just the Right Place

I feel like I don't even have to write an introduction to these any more. They just are what they are and say what I say, like all of these did as well (see HERE).



 Sanctified wrote this first one. I love it. I'm an effort kind of guy as long as that effort is returned. 

If it's worth it, it will require effort. 
Nothing worth having comes easy.
