Different Weird Or Cracked

There's usually a balance tween sad and happy Somehow my brain's out of whack Certainly not saying I'm complaining or such Am I different or weird or cracked? Cracked or broken, ah maybe that's it Can only go by what I have learned Ya gotta be careful, must proceed with caution If not, you'll surely get burned The best thing to do is just take it slow Emotions can cloud your thinking Tread ever so lightly till you're sure it's right Then full steam ahead without blinking Someone out there is just waiting for you When you find them you'll know right away The trumpets will blow, the bells will ring Every day will be a red letter day I'm no expert but after seventy-eight years I've come to an astounding revelation From the moment we're born till the day we die Every day's an exciting celebration! © Jack Ellison 2013

Jack, yes. I do believe every day is absolutely wonderful. Even the tough ones. I just give thanks to be alive because nothing really makes any sense as far as the big question.

Dragon celebrates big time! No Dragon! No ooey gooey butter cake for you!... No I won't make any... Lost the recipe. Sure I did! You think I'd lie to you? Of course not! ...You don't believe me? It's getting harder to redirect his attention as he gets older... We'll celebrate with sno cones later... Now? The place isn't open yet... Besides you like cherry...You want you're matching red outfit, with sparkles? It's in the wash? I'll get on it right away.He should be open by then... LOL... I win!
