Pulling Out the Mightiest Me
When I am tired, sad, lonely, bored, or depressed
I remind myself to bring out Mightiest Me.
Mightiest Me is joyful, excited and thrilled with life.
She loves being unleashed; we laugh together upon arrival.
How can you do it? Some ask me. I have a few answers.
I know how awful it was before I summoned Mightiest Me.
I could stay in a blue funk, sad for hours, days, then weeks.
I did not get dressed or greet people. I wanted to sleep.
I guess I invented Mightiest Me to pull me up.
To give me pep talks, to hug me and love me.
She has never disappointed or disrespected me.
I had enough of that before she appeared the first time.
