I understand very well being scared of the future.
Fighter jets and fire engines don't make me feel safer.
Just more scared. But that Rumi, he never said life was safe.

It's actually very easy to be miserable,
because nothing is ever going to be perfect
in an less than perfect world. Be different.
Do the difficult. Don't add to the misery.

Be glad when times are good.
When times are not so good,
be glad you were so lucky, and
try to make your own luck again.

"And smale foweles maken melodye"

Good memories are doubly precious
- once in the creating,
and again in the remembering.
I wish I had a better memory.

Life can sure be like an oyster. Hard shell;
lots of squishy bits whose edibility is much
a matter of personal taste; irritations; rarely,
a pearl. So, how do I get this thing open again?

"That slepen al the nyght with open ye"

Of course, there's always something profound
from the Beatles. In this case: "The love you make
is equal to the love you take."

"(So priketh hem nature in hir corages)"

Don't wanna run with the big boys, buy bigger toys.
Babies or marriage, they ain't the issue here.
I'm not against either. I just want my own future.
To write, to dance, to breathe, to float, to fly.
To be strong, to be comforted, to be, to see. I.

"Thanne longen folk to go on pilgrimages"

Because a pilgrim has
a clear path,
a destination, and
a plan to return to grace.

Deadlines and dollar signs
A cup of kindness and I'll be fine
Gonna patch up all those holes and tears you see
Don't worry 'bout me
-Patty Larkin

netpositive living up to her name...in an uncanny way. If I perceive from your words what I think I perceive, things are looking up. I do hope they are. It's been an odd couple years but I think the tides are turning. We've gone through a time of questioning and I think answers are finally forthcoming. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. I keep thinking, "change is the only constant". hee!
