I didn't feel the need to justify my beliefs but I did feel the need to let him how inappropriate his verbal attack was. I reminded him Lily was watching. He didn't care. He kept insulting me.
Because my hourglass seemed full, I had not given thought,
To cherish every grain within, a lesson just now taught.
Like gunpowder, instead of sand, our time in little mounds
A careless spark from destiny, releasing death’s dark hounds.
I don't want to miss out anymore. I don't want to have a perfect house and life that looks like I have my act together when I am not able to enjoy life as it passes me by.
Developing the ability to be able to stand up and express a Perspective that is contrary to the prevailing "Supposed to be;" is one of the major values in all of this.
I believe that when people used to close their eyes
And see who they really are within them
That was the time when they started to shine.
And begins to love... the purest love of loving themselves.
