Silly Thoughts

Can mirth shadow sorrow, glossing it to gay heights where eyes shine in gaiety and cheeks dimple with grins or shall they pall and droop to frowns and wrinkles? Can tomorrow be today or today be yesterday or yesterday be tomorrow? Can you die before you are born or be born before conception? Does it bother you that it bothers me when you are bothered? At times I laugh when crying and cry when laughing! It’s a mystery I know, but then mysteries are what I know so tell me, can mirth shadow sorrow or sorrow mar mirth?
