October, 2011
I assembled myself into me at last
Took all of me that lived different lives
Grouped them into one
I then saw the imminent
The now of the world
Understanding it as I never could have before
For I was then a complete man
Who learned life's lesson of serene wisdom
It isn't that I know more than most
I only know myself
As never before
That my friend was worth all the waiting for
It tells me everything
In the past
The bad and the good
All had to happen to make of me complete

Thanks, Zall. Yeah, these kind of "weird" coincidences do happen every so often. I'm heading over to your place and read it.

Yes, indeed,Karen, Happiness 'R Me! Even though life may throw me a hanging curve when I'm looking for a fastball, doesn't matter, nothing can penetrate the happiness within myself.

Isn't it the truth my friend, I know where you're coming from and happy for you that you made it through.

Take care

Eric

"Made it through," is exactly how it feels, Eric. I feel that you understand,like you said you know where I'm coming from. Personally I never thought I would get to this place, but I have and I'm loving it.

Thank you, Lori. Yes, it is shining. It always will. Some days brighter than others . . .
