Something light
When in came Nicasia from out of sight,
I jumped with such surprise and delight,
I accidentally kicked her - with all of my might,
So if you happen to see her limping tonight,
Please don't say, "Hey, are you alright?"
Instead, distract her with, "Sure is a nice night!"
Or sing her that song, "Let's go fly a kite!"
Making this special request might not be right,
But - heck - I'd be downright impressed if she checked my Facebook stories tonight.
Today I am grateful for:
- Chicken Margherita pasta
- Recognizing, realizing, and redirecting
- Company
- Connection
- Vulnerability and imperfection
- Big smiles
- New beginnings
- Knowing I am allowed to exist
- Cat naps
- Hip stretches
- Opening up
- Letting go
- Saying yes, Saying no
- Play
- Manifestations coming true
- When you make room, what comes into view
- Sleep
- Bubble baths
- Silent sighs
- Noisy laughs
- Smiles you can't put away
- Getting out of your own way
- A change of perspective
- A new directive
- It's going to be okay
- It is okay

And I intend to play
So roll the dice
And don't think twice
How 'bout a round or two?
You might get hurt,
Call life alert,
The game may leave you blue,
But why be blue?
And why get hurt?
When you can enjoy the view?
Exist
Not that I didn't want to exist
But I wanted to apologize for my existence
I wanted to apologize for smiling non-stop
I wanted to apologize for singing
But I can't and I won't and I don't need to
Because singing and smiling is my true
And I am allowed to be my most authentic hue
So to myself I will be true
So to myself I say, GO YOU!
I am allowed to exist
I am allowed to take up space
I am allowed to show my face
I am smart
I am wise
I am allowed to have extra fries
I am confident
I am free
I am exactly where I'm meant to be
So thank you
Thank you
Thank you, to me!
For being
And healing
For feeling
And dealing
For breathing
For seeing
For choosing
For growing
I love you, I see you, I want you, I need you, I am you, I feel you, I free you, I love you.
