I'm feeling good here lately
I find feeling good has little to do with what is going on in my life
and much with what happens in my head
I have been given a gift of peace
I don't know exactly how I arrived here
I started taking care of myself
doing what I wanted to do
there are some things I am powerless to fix
so I may as well
let them go
toss them in the figurative river
let it flow on by
every one has their own path they need to follow
we all have to find our own way
so I go my way
make my own choices
not excuses
and find what joy I can along the journey.
I've also been playing with some new friends
babysitting Mariah's friend Michelle's boys
renewing an old friendship with Dell
who used to live next door
we lost touch for a few years
but fell right back into our comfortable ways
and like a baby turtle
blindly headed for the ocean
floated in the amniotic fluid of the Gulf of Mexico
and emerged reborn
finding my smile on the beach
like a seashell
wishing you happy births all of your days,
Marti
