Serenity and Peace have come to me these welcomed guests reside inside my heart for "what will be, will be" I now can see I am untouched by what will tear apart for life is short and soon my time will end regrets will not define my waning day my hurt and pain to deep abyss I send and choose to walk along the "Lover's Way" my friends and loved ones see with crystal eyes the woman and the child I am inside their loyalty sees truth and no disguise my heart I bare and dreams to them confide Serenity and Peace have graced my soul For Friendships true have made me strong and whole Eileen Manassian

I received news that a young man who was my student for two semester died in a car crash. It has taken me some time to wrap my mind around that. People can be petty....and say things that are so untrue...but I need to stay focused. Thanks for the visit, dear. Hugs
