be forgiving of everyone and of every act
we believe has hurt us.

than the ephemeral - merely different.

a totally different kind of life, luminous and radiant.
You will have a dance to your feet
and your heart will be singing a thousand and one songs.

in this case by sharing my emotional outlook on life.
