How come it's mostly the things that are "bad" for us that feel SOOOO good?!?  
Wanna glass of wine?  Better ripped than torn, I always say...

Wonderful write!

...I always wonder if another person's experience makes it easier or harder for them to tell you that its for your own good?

wow, I really liked that. when poems go on and on, I start to snore, but yours was nice and short.

I use to tell my son that challenging things developed character. One day he declared he had enough character! Peace and courage to you.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

They said cod liver oil was good for me too Sandra, and it never made me once feel better so I feel this one all too well.  You take emotions and do magical things to them with your words.

It tears me up to hear what's best for me!
Who is to say what's in yours or my best interest.  I know what I want and I want it now!     As Larry would say, patience is overrated!  

Dear Sandra~ It's so good to read you.

I never did tend to lean towards what was for my own good!!  I loved this, and know you won't feel torn up for long!!!  

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~
