The rest were posting new threads so I thought why not?...lol I am an independant nurturer I wonder why people can be so blind I hear the trees whisper to the breeze I see the sky kiss the earth I want to see the world I am an independant nurturer I pretend to live in his arms I feel growth in the journey I touch the dreams of the world I worry I am not enough I cry for the loss of innocence I am an independant nurturer I understand that anything worth while is not easy I say love is the answer I dream of true freedom I try to live up to my potential I hope to see my words in print I am an independant nurturer [This message has been edited by Marilyn (edited 04-29-2000).] |

Wow..I am not sure what to say in response to all of you. I am glad you enjoyed this little peek into me but I think some of you (those who already know me) already knew this much. This was definately a challenge to write and something that made me look deep inside myself. I know I could write many of these and still have a few extra things to say about the different aspects of me. We are all so complex but at the same time very simple. |
