a friend is like the light. a friend is like a flower that blooms just for you..and we can be our real selves when we see what's true..a friend is like a gentle rain when you thirst..and we are dancing rings around a rose called mother earth..a friend is like the moon choosing to reflect the light..and we couldn't see the beautiful stars unless it was for the dark of nights..a friend is like a flower we send to ourselves..a gift that just keeps on opening until the light of love is shown and felt.
Vinster! So, you bump me off just to re-add me? And I thought you hated me! Hahaha. How have you been? It's been quite a while. A lot here on my end. I've been trekking up & down the coast since February numerous times & will be moving to San Francisco soon. Also have a three month roadtrip from San Diego to Washington State in the fall. Things are pretty busy; I'm anxious as holy hell. What about you? :)
