I went to sleep
on a peaceful night
woke up with inbound
wars
My day was too long
and full of sorrow
but somehow
within me
remained the hope for
a better me
regardless of how the world
awakes
my commitment is to
myself and not the rest

This is the perfect inspiration to Duncan's question. We should all be looking at bettering ourselves and you have said it perfectly. BRAVO!!**hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

And therein lies the moral to the story that I just can't seem to finish. Thanks, walker.

(sigh) Oh my gosh, this is so very true, sweet Walker, the best thing we can ever do is listen to our hearts and become the loving people we are all born to be. (smiles) I love it! Beautiful, sweet friend! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Walker, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
