" I grew up terrified

 of what I knew myself

 to be. 

I felt haunted by it

because it was both

 a crime 

and a mental illness 

when I was a child.  .  .  

I was part 

of this wonderful

 wave of liberation."

" Surely the strange

 beauty of the world 

must somewhere

 rest on 

pure joy! "

" Nothing is black or white,

 nothing's 'us or them.' 

.  .  .  there are 

magical, beautiful 

things in the world. 

There's incredible acts 

of kindness and

 bravery, and 

in the most 

unlikely places, 

and it gives you 

hope. "

Dave Matthews

I dropped my ball cap

in a puddle.

But I ALWAYS

wear the ball cap

under my motorcycle helmet

as a clean liner

and for the sun-bill.

So I wore my

virgin helmet

without 'protection'

So I was able to 

re-discover

the recessed visor (!)

and enjoy some

protection

in the rain!

Don't fret life's puddles,

enjoy the skies & clouds

reflected therein.

Or something like that,

my friends!

I love the optimism

and point-of-view

we enjoy at 

Your blogs!
