resting place

Tell me one more time

The story I should already know,

the tale of pain and woe that searches

for an ending, a place to stop and rest.

The bells chime, the funeral procession begins

We cling to what is gone and only know grief

The bird escapes his prison and there is a

Moment of bliss we choose to follow..

And it is enough...

courage

The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.     Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966
