Inevitably there will be hardship: that goes with the territory. But you don’t have to let suffering define your experience of life, and you don’t have to pass it along to others just because it hurts. You learn and grow from it - you teach your pain to sing. You let the light wash out the darkness.

thankful for…
the sunshine
the layer of blacker skin that coats me now the day is done
the love i get from the neighbors and community people in brooklyn, usa
rooms to move between
lessons that don’t always feel good in their receiving, but will prove worthy along life’s way
the piles of clothes that have done me well for so long and will soon leave me for better closets
excess
humility
karma
options
the ability to trust the self, in spite of the painful truth that sits beside
joy…unspeakable joy
CREATIVITY
my mother
family
friends, real live, constant, forgiving, patient, loyal friends
and of course, God: His/Her ears, eyes, grace and MERCY
