Mira was just telling me that someone from her school is tweeting positive and kind things about their classmates.....taking a moment to recognize something good about them and posting it. Someone posted about her that she is always full of peace , love and happiness and it made her day :)

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”

Leo F. Buscaglia

"People don't change" is a terrible affirmation that many people use to try to guide their hearts from yet another disappointment.  But the real pain comes from wanting people to be different than they are and from having expectations for them to meet.  Spiritual maturing is about releasing people to be whoever they are.

I love this!!!

Happy 23rd Anninversay, Mark Kuhar!!!!!
 In honor of today, I am posting a poem he wrote me 11 years ago on our anniversary b/c it is one of my favorites......and yes, it is a true story. :) ...
anniversary poem (for michele) by Markk
once a guy in a bar full of drunks offered
me his motorcycle in exchange for you,
& for a second there i gave it some thought.
there's nothing like
the feel of the wind
full against the face
roaring 80 mph down
 the asphalt ribbons
of america, the sunset
behind, a two-wheeled
shadow passing over
hard pavement, broken
white lines shooting past
like blurry bullets.
but then again, there's nothing like a barbados sunset
 a maui morning, the salty
san francisco waterfront,
melrose street in l.a.,
the solitary tropical islands of the bahamas,
grand florida palatial hotels,
great silent national forest campsites,
the utter madness of a put-in-bay weekend,
the energy of lake chatauqua,
even the casa linda, with hookers &;
junkies
or a tacky las vegas italian restaurant
with bad wine & an accordian player.

there are three tiny comedians
still asleep upstairs
while you're downstairs looking for your keys &;
shoes, yeah, once a drunk guy offered up his harley in exchange for you,
but i turned him down,
&; in the long run no doubt i got the better end of that crazy deal
