My Resolution

Is to descend the stair looking for where my soul hides those bits I hate in myself; The darkness of control, selfishness, procrastination, laziness -- Put back in their place, I ascend again to expand my heart songs; generosity, creative vision, able to move freely among my thoughts letting the beauty around me tease my soul into a smile.

Judith, your "stairs" truly reflect the ups and downs of life. I'm glad you're in a good place again; we all struggle sometimes. Very nice! And thanks for your comments on "Feline Survivor." I only wish those students would learn to accept some responsibility so tragedies such as these do not repeat themselves. Love, Carolyn
