It is no one else's place to say
what is right, or what is wrong
because when it comes to opinions
doesn't everyone’s belong?

Leave life’s narrow mindedness
out they’re to suffer in the cold
stay true unto yourself
don't buy into what others have sold.

Whatever you choose to do
please, keep your own mind free
don't give in to the established
just be who it is that you desire to be.

It surely doesn't matter
who thinks your wrong, or right;
remember its up to you
to stand up for yourself and fight,

for all those things that you believe

to the notions of others, please don't concede..

always,

always...

maintain your
individuality.




live for today,
dream of the future,
and learn eternal truths from the past..

(smiles) Yay! Oh Donna, I have always believed that diversity should not just be tolerated, it should always be celebrated as well, and so I feel as a society we often neglect the true wishes and desires of our children and if many would only listen to them much more rather than a small group of much older individuals, the world will be a much better, kinder and complete place! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is wonderful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
