it would be we're all okay,

Light does the darkness most fear.

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.

which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.

A man who will Kiss the Flame.

I'm having a bad day. I am not size six.
My legs are not skinny as sticks,

You're so shallow.

to solve a political problem,
I don't know how to solve the pollution problem...
all I know is in my own life,

and I'm willing.

You always feel better when you sing.

Life is NOT "Supposed to be Fair."
Know that there is no single way that life is "supposed" to be.
Demanding that life meet our expectations
is a sure fire recipe for a miserable existence.
Life is a game with no rules.
Life just happens to us regardless of our best intentions.
Our only path to happiness lies in being open
to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.
