Maybe it’s the weather The sun so penetrating With it’s warmth And promise Maybe it’s the friends I have That give so much of themselves When I am in need Maybe it’s the newfound comfort Of my own skin The acceptance of me Whatever it is It has given me the ability To work through the ugly And to receive gifts of heart And I am glad I am filled with honest Happiness That you seem to be the reward Of my evolution "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |

"The acceptance of me" The epitome of mental well-being and the very kernel of happiness...a good state to be in... |

"Whatever it is It has given me the ability To work through the ugly And to receive gifts of heart" ~ ... and that ugliness must be around you because it certainly isn't in you, Susan. Enjoyed! |
