{from the rambling series}

Lazy gray rainy day
surrounds my thoughts
as I sit in quiet contemplation
of what once was   and that
which life    has become.

Regrets.
I choose not to harbor regrets,
for each one that I would hold
has somehow affected me
       with     positive effect.

Reflect.
Yes, I reflect on those things
which have caused past pains

but I push them aside
so that rather      I can celebrate
what has come to be    resulting from that
which once upon a time          was.

Destinies Unknown.
  I admit to myself
yet, I face them now
being able to stand       steadfast
in knowing that I am          stronger now
because I was weaker

then.

{revised repost }

Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it...Santana
