I'm Nobody! Who are you?
I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us- don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.
How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog.
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
-Emily Dickinson
A Bit About Me
- MJ
- Washington, United States
- I'm me. I'm nothing without the sovereign, saving grace of God and the perfect work of Christ. I want to live to serve Him. I love my family and friends. And I think "About Me"s are pretty much impossible to write ;-)

I have heard that before but never knew who it was.
Will you be nobody with me?
I'm nobody too! I dance in the streets and ask for your hat so I can photograph myself in it. I sit on penny fountain and throw a penny in and pick it out to throw it back. I run down the street singing songs no one els knows. I throw my cares to the highest building and run for my life like nothing els mattered.
I'm nobody.
Are you, nobody, too?
Will you be friends with me and be nobodies?
Sorry. That is a lovely poem! I never heard the whole thing before.
Thanks MJ!
We have to give Sam credit for first developing a real live community of nobodies...after Emily Dickinson of course!
Hey guys my friend Lauren wants to join our blogging circle too, but she need an invitation to Lucy, Lindy, Emily, and Village Square to be able to comment there and stuff. I'll give you guys her e-mail if you could please send her an invitation?
~Verya~
Sure thing Kacy! Yay! Another friend to join in all the chaos!
I will comment like 23 times on here, k?
I like to comment on your blog!
I have new phone!!!!!!!!!!
Call me sometime.
Please?
Or. . .
I would call you. . .
But I don't have your number!
*sniff*
Will you give me your number, so I can call you?
Please?
I miss talking with you!
*sigh*
Oh, you need to come on chat more too!
Clearly I'm feeling better.
Once I'm completely better, I am going to go exploring!
Then I will take pictures and tell you all about it!
And then you need to come and visit and me and Lindy can show you all of the cool places we would find!
Such as the river just across the field! :)
Or the train track you can put coins on and have them smashed!
After we do that we can go and dig for fresh potatoes!
Have you ever had fresh oven fries?
They are delicious!
And to finish the day, I will make our favorite brownies!
You coming?
Definitely. Count me in! someday...
thanks for posting that MJ, I think I needed it. :)
You have to post all about your new place you guys!!!!!!
i like this poem it's my favorite...yet i like emily dickinson's work...and this is like her pop hit compared with her real poetry. good stuff though.
I agree with Sam, I think. Er, good poem!!
*nudges* *whispers* new post!
I can see already I would love the place you live Lucy and Lindy! It sounds so cool!!
OH, if I could make a summer camp here I TOTALLY would!!!
Or I would just pretend to have a summer camp so that you would all come down.
hehehe
You know Sam, there's nothing wrong with liking someone's biggest hit, even if everyone else likes it. Rugged individualism only goes so far.
;)
Glad you like it, Sam.
Okay, time for a new post.
Oh, and thanks so much for commenting!
