You just try and judge me....

 

 

 

Something I am realizing more and more as each year of my life

passes by.

Too many years were wasted foolishly; worrying about what

other people would think of the way I look, the way I walk,

my political views, my passion for peace; my love for

The Beatles...

But, with age comes wisdom; and now, at 62; anyone who feels

they have to judge me, "the never grown up hippie"; can just

take a long walk off a short pier.

I am ME, and THAT is exactly the way I like it.



The Face of True Frienship

 

 

This is the face of a true friend; a friend who will drop everything

when someone calls him for help;

A friend who defines the word "friendship", who

truly knows what that word means.

 

I am so proud to be his friend, and so humbled that he has included

me in his circle of friends.

 

Much Love to You....

1. 

Waiting, Waiting, but no more....time to put up or shut up

 

 

A mantra, I guess; or maybe just lessons being

learned

 

Lessons of Life I don't really want to learn....

 

 

 

I am really learning this lesson the very

hard way.....experience sure

sucks...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



I Miss You Still.....

 

I have done this more than anyone can ever know.

 

I hold the picture in my hand; close my eyes;

and I can almost smell the sweetness; feel the softness;

hear the gentle breathing...

Then I open my eyes,

and the fantasy has vanished like a ghost

 





All You Need is Love

 

 

 

 

Oh; I think we all know this one much too well.

 

Why are people so quick to believe the nasty gossip spoken about you;

than any truth that you speck about yourself?

Why do people relish in the wickedness and not the

kindness about another?

 

Why is it so hard for people to accept a beautiful, courageous

act of selflessness done to or for them;

but find it so easy to accept the back stabbing and viper whispers?

 

We are indeed a strange species...the only ones who

hurt each other like we do; just because we cannot

find it in our hearts to love

ourselves...

 

LOVE IS THE ANSWER



Done being confused, used and abused....

 

 

I WILL believe this one day very soon.

Then, anyone who has used me, abused me, taken me for

granted will see themselves reflected back in the mirrors

of my eyes.

They will see that didn't break me; didn't destroy my

self-esteem with their selfish wants and "needs"

I AM ME, CHERYL; a woman to be respected

and WORTHY of love, not just lust...

 

Read it, believe it; and know that

I survived your "excuses", your "sweet talk"

I survive all of you....
