They are a sign
of a pure
heart. ”

“There is some kind of a sweet innocence
in being human. . .
in the nature of being able

to be both broken
and whole,
at the same time.”

from our name,
from our name,
then I weep for the flower
named Wilt. ”
Jarod Kintz,
“ Ho! Ho! Ho!
To the bottle I go
To heal my heart
To heal my heart
and drown my woe
Rain may fall,
Rain may fall,
and wind may blow
And many miles
And many miles
be still to go
But under a tall tree
But under a tall tree
will I lie
And let the clouds
And let the clouds
go sailing by”
J.R.R. Tolkien

Don't try to fix me
When I'm sad,
Or make me feel
I'm being bad,
Do nothing
But Be There
Don't Recoil
All good's not spoiled
Just love me,
Steady on the way
And I will guard
Your sadness
When mine has gone
away.
Thanks for cheering me so often!
