Tell me a Story.

We all have them… we all share them… and as most people do… everyone likes a good story…. and there are lots of stories to tell and be heard. Story tellers don’t like to disappoint… so a bit of playful embellishment may be just the touch to spice up the story for the listeners. Now… most story tellers may pause for a moment and reflect upon themselves… and the methods that they employ make their stores a bit more interesting. I say “Pause” because it implies to the short momentary thought process that precedes the inclination to proceed as planed in spite of that terrible little notion to tell the complete truth and nothing but the truth… and the story goes on from there.

Perhaps it was best expressed by Jimmy himself…

A Semi True Story…

It’s a semi true story,

Believe it or not,

I made up a few things,

and there’s some I forgot,

but the life & the tellin’,

are both real to me,

and they all run together,

and turn out to be,

a semi true story.

Now I don’t really know how much this applies to me,

(okay… all of it )

or how often it may apply,

( all the time )

All I can say is that the little voice,

the notion to be 100% truthful,

well, I guess it’s best expressed as…

listener beware!

But who knows…

like they say…

there’s a bit of truth in everything.

( somewhere )

A Semi True Story for Sure.

The greater the story… the greater the embellishment?

Sometimes, perhaps, maybe, most likely.
