Today

Just as there are things worth dying for, there are plenty of things worth living for.

Don't miss today's chance to be happy. It is a choice.

A.S.

We need...

People want to be acknowledged and accepted in society, within' big and small circles alike. We project ourselves onto others, good and bad... We want our choices & beliefs, big or small to be validated and accepted.

We need to learn to accept ourselves. We need to appreciate and embrace all our differences, not just our similarities. So long as there is respect for life and love.

Its so simple to do, yet so hard for people to learn.

Peace....

Aware

Despite what some may speak of..

I'm grateful for this day.

Everything that has led me to this moment..

For all that fills this space and time..

All tangible and emotional feeling..

Being.

Let me die in a state of awareness..

Grateful for this vessel that is this body..

In touch with the spirit within'..

My flesh, my tool..

Mind, body and soul...

Let me die in a sate they are all One.

28 layers

There are twenty eight layers of me.

Not a single day would help you see..

Not many have gone beyond three.

Who am I kidding?

Not many see beyond this face.

I am deeper than the darkest blues..

I go higher than what meets the eye..

I am a feeling, a truth.. a message.. a reflection.

A soul dancing in a vessel.

I am decorated by skin and bones.

These hands are merely tools.

They tire and they can break...

But my heart remains.

I live.

Every year I've grown..

I am so much more than you'll ever know.

A.S.
