First Impressions

First impressions--
What a joke!
That's all I know.
So often wrong--
Good or bad.
My advice:
Don't try to
Figure them out;
People are people,
I am who I am;
If you want to know,
Simply ask.

Memories

Helps me see my true identity: A lovely daughter of God. --July 14, 2003 I think I wrote this reflecting upon previous feelings of inadequacy.

Opposing Forces

Life is a war between good and evil; Who are you going to choose? We want to be victorious, But sometimes we forget the way.

So who do you choose? --16 July 2003
