Favorite Quote:
Be strong, believe in freedom and in God, love yourself, understand your sexuality, have a sense of humor, don’t judge people by their religion, color or sexual habits, love life and your family. -Madonna


We are born,
As a bundle of confusion and joy-
But when we grow up,
We are caterpillars.

Life weaves a careful cocoon,
Caressing tenderness around us,
As we grow and learn,
We change

And then one day,
A butterfly appears-
On the first day,
The spread love,

Just because,
It makes the world,
A better place.

All butterflies,
Shine immaculate colors,
On iridescent wings,
For ever and ever.

But every butterfly, eventually,
Must fly home.
We miss each one,
But the butterflies,
Are floating with the stars,
And God,
And are in bliss

I honestly have no idea if this is good or not. I wrote it for a friend who was dying, and she cried when she read it, but in a good way.
