If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

congratulations on your Leaderboard placement! 🎉💖🎊
I can't decide how to receive this Paul... is it someone enjoying a good drink/ coffee? Is it a "comment" on political issues? Or perhaps the spammers that swarmed vocal and the lack of action there? Oh how the wheels are turning for me.... Nicely done and congrats on third most popular story this week!

This isn’t really Morse code is it ? As Stephen stated.. I thought it was a comment on advertising.
I laughed out loud, Paul! Very clever! In 1952, the pianist and composer John Cage performed an original composition that he named 4:33. When he walked to the piano in the concert hall the audience clapped in anticipation. But when he left the stage 4 minutes and 33 seconds later without playing a note, the applause was notably less enthusiastic.
Ha! Nice! Well played!
LOL, perfect lack of words to match the perfect lack of communication and transparency! Loved this
Niiiice!
Ha I love this. Nice work ! What was your trigger for writing this ? 🏆
