75 Entries for “seldom”

  1. There are quite a few things that I don’t do as often as I’d like, I think.
    Like curling up on my bed and reading a book that I actually want to read.
    Eating out with my friends and making so much noise the staff glare at us.
    Talking to someone until the sun rises.
    Telling my parents I love them.
    Hugging my siblings.
    Convince myself I’m good enough.
    Small things like those, which I seldom ever do.

  6. I seldom imagine myself being below average. Whenever I dream, I dream of being higher. I dream of having some lofty purpose, being some role model to kids all over the country. I seldom dream of sitting alone, not relating to the people around me. I seldom dream of being wrong, of being broken, of being lost.

  7. People are born destined for greatness. Seldom, however, do we actually achieve what we’ve come for.

  8. Seldom do you see me not in deep thought. Im breaking bad
    behaviors today. No more hoot-n-nanny. Live in the moment. Be one
    with the one who makes it all real. The one nearest to you. The one
    you can hear above the rest.

  9. I seldom had a chance to sit down and think anymore. Being a mom was busy work. But today, the kids were gone at school, and John was off at work. I sat down next to the window and exhaled a sigh of relief. It was calm outside, and there was work to be done, but that could wait. I just needed a moment of peace to myself.

  10. Seldom do I think about that day. I feel the heat on my
    skin. I taste the salt spray on my tongue. But do I actually THINK
    about that day, remember the memories on purpose? No. Why would I
    do that? Why would I go back to that moment when my world collapsed
    around me?

  11. It doesn’t happen very often. But when it does it is tipping on the edge of divine. Ecstasy grips my body and shivers consume me. That cheese! It is just so good!

  12. He talked very seldom but when he did, it had been always a joy listening to him. Although none of his words made any sense at all.

  14. your smile is the thinning ozone
    but i can’t stop lighting fires
    underneath

    my hair will smell like smoke in the end
    and so will yours

    your fingertips, charred
    my lips, blackened
    from trying to suck the ashes off them

    i will gladly line my insides with dust
    if it’s the dead skin you’ve shed

    this isn’t healthy
    this is a candle next to a curtain
    hung from an open window on a windy night

    this is you and me burnt
    beyond recognition
    if but for the arrangement of our teeth

    the papercut quality of your grin.

  15. She seldom thought of herself in terms of endearment, and yet as she stared at her reflection in the grand mirror in front of her, she found it difficult not to. Her face looked soft, and yet severe. A small smile played on her lips, contrasted by her high cheek bones and angry eyes. She looked powerful with her shoulders pushed back, and her hair tied away from her face. And instead of thinking of herself as an insignificant being, she saw herself as unstoppable.

  16. Rain was a rare occurence in this part of the world. Hal decided to enjoy it as much as he could. He didn’t have an umbrella like most people in these arid parts, and that was fine by him since he would have left it behind anyway. He hurried outside and raised his arms under the dissembling silken sheet of rainwater, looking for that magic that he saw possess his desert-dried schoolmates who had never lived in pouring Seattle like him.

  17. She seldom finds the need to seek out others for her needs in company for she is quite content on her own, happy to be in her own world.

  18. Seldom had he seen such a bright light, her smile radiated. He seldom did this. But he walked up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. She was if made of electricity. He knew. It was love. He knew, because it happened seldom.

  19. Seldom do I cease my thinking, my process of drinking, or lack of speaking- for fear I may never be able to do either three again. A seldom notion of beer spilt on the floor while I seldom ask for anyone, anymore.

  20. She was very lonely. Looking after her mother in her latter years she seldom had time for herself and found it difficult to make friends.

  21. Barely ever, not any more.
    But even as I think of
    How I don’t think about you-
    I realize I do.
    But I don’t…
    Think about you I mean.
    Seldom. Barely ever.
    Almost tending to never.
    It will always tend to never.

  22. I seldom seem to take the time to spend with my family and friends because I seem to think that making ends meet so they can have a better life is important to me

  23. seldom do I stick to a commitment. I truly wish I could commit to myself and my goals and stick, stick, stick, to it. I am a weak willed person who seems to succumb to my inner demons on a regular basis. Damn my weakness. Damn my faults. Dear God, please help me overcome.

  24. Seldom did he enjoy himself at school; he was always bullied, so it wasn’t easy for him to have fun. However, after years of loneliness, he finally had a friend. He alone understood him and his complexities; it was just too sad that existed only in his notebook.

  28. We seldom that into consideration the fact that our lives are in the master’s hand. Life is worth living, but we take for granted that all will be well, and tomorrow will come again as it did the day before.

  29. I seldom think about writing for one word until I get here and am presented with that one word. Today’s word – seldom – is one I seldom use. Why? Because it’s seldom needed. Today is one of those days that comes less than seldom. It’s one time per year. Yom Kippur is the day of atonement when we seldom think about food. Don’t eat for a whole day and atone.

  30. I seldom have a bad day when cricket and football are on all day, it’s the ultimate in relaxation and magically removes all your problems and negative feelings!

  31. i seldom know what to write when the guys at oneword give random words like seldom. seriously………………………..

  32. I seldom say this out loud, but I really like marshmallows when they go all mushy on your face. The more, the better. Look, a pink cloud is floating by! Let’s jump on it, I think it’ll take us on a journey through soft pink dreams. Taste it, it must be so sweet that at the end you will throw up. But sink into it now, it’ll naturally melt down under your heat. Nothing to fear.

  33. Seldom have I the opportunity to welcome such a distinguished guest, such as yourself. Please, step into my parlor and tell me the tales of your travels. I am sure they are the height of entertainment and class.

    Oh, where are my manners? Would you care for a class of cordial? I’ve only a humble berry cordial, hardly fitting for a Lord such as yourself, but it would honor me and my house if you were to accept.

    Yes, yes, right away. No, you shouldn’t worry about bandits in this area. No one would dare to come upon my land. Which is why I am surprised by your visit My Lord. It is a welcome surprise however, I am so very hungry and you are so very lean. I imagine an apple will fill your mouth nicely.

  34. The wise monk on the mountain seldom came down to give advice, but when he did, the people listened. One day he came down and he said to me:

    “Listen, my son. Never eat dragon eggs on Sunday. The Green Gopher will scratch up your socks.”

    And that was the last day anyone called him wise.

  35. I wish I could say I seldom catch myself staring after him, hoping, wishing. But then again, I try my best to be honest.
