I just must share, I do declare What it means to be me. Life’s too short to take too seriously. So please, listen up, loosen up, party a little. Do something spontaneously, daily, silly. It keeps the soul refreshed. Pinch the behind just to make sure, nope, not dreaming. Stretch big stretches. Extending arms up high... Reach up... touch the sky, spin and fly. Breathe in deeply. Just enjoying the view of being alive while I inhale The awe-inspiring newness of being Born again with these childhood eyes. Once, long ago I realized, It’s just no fun being dead inside.
