"I AM"

I am creative and loving.
I wonder about the inequality of birth.
I hear angels sing when I am happy.
I see crystal castles reaching up into the heavens.
I want man to put down his arms and pick up each other.
I am creative and loving.

I pretend I am a fairy and can wave a magic wand.
I feel lighter than a spring breeze.
I touch the Face of God when I touch that of a child’s.
I worry that my days will end before I have done all that I want to do.
I cry when a child cries.
I am creative and loving.

I understand that there are lessons to be learned through adversity.
I say that happiness is a state of mind. Think happy ~ be happy!
I dream of my children making this world a better  place than the one they were born in to.
I try to do my very best at whatever I attempt to do.
I hope that I never cause others to feel sadness, fear, or pain.
I am creative and loving.

As your name suggests, so you be.
Thank you for being who you are, and thanking you in advance, for the favor I've asked in an email this morning.

You are "beautiful" - what a loving spirit pours forth from this - truly angelic -

Hugs -  Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

I love the honesty and simple complexity of this. Simple complexity may seem a strange combination , but it was awesomely simple that it became almost complex with the truth of what you are. I simply adored the imagery.

I can't imagine you causing sadness or fear or pain to anyone. Angels don't do that.
