If I could give you one gift to have and to hold, something so special that you would never let go.. I'd give you enough.

Enough joy to last a lifetime. The kind of joy that leaves you laughing til you cry, smiling all the time, seeing the good in every pitfall.

Enough patience to weather the storm. Patience with others but more importantly, the patience to allow yourself to be human and imperfect.

Enough wisdom to see how it all can be. Not as it is.. not as it will be, but the way that it should be if this were a perfect world.

Enough Laughter to fill your heart to the brim.

Enough tears to wash away the pain.

Enough tenderness to ease the bits that hurt.

Enough drive to get done the things that you need to do to survive.

Enough love to ensure that you never question if someone loves you.

Enough of everything that you need so that you should never want.

Just one simple gift.. it's smaller than a breadbox but bigger than the universe. Enough.

I hate being told what I feel or how I should feel.. so I'm never going to tell anyone how they should feel.. or that i know their pain. I don't. I never can. Your pain is yours.. so why are you hanging on to it? Why not put it in the dumpster out back and let the garbage man take it away? What good is it doing you? Is it helping you to evolve? Are you learning from it? Or are you hiding behind it?

Too often, I think, we look around and say, "this is how it is." This is not how it is.. it's how we let it be.. we always get what we settle for. What are you going to settle for? You deserve far more than you believe you do.

Oprah my ass. Oprah got nuttin on da Skwirl.

always tell people at work when they ask me how come people who do the same work get more pay...I always tell them...you get what you Bargain for...not what your worth.

Nice blog...thanks...

Life is what you make it...I know, but I spent a hellava lot of years learning that. Then one day I woke up and realized I'm the only one who can change it and it starts with being happy with life just the way it is today...with all its flaws. Tomorrow will bring changes for nothing stays the same so I just stay happy in each day that I'm blessed with.

Big ole fat Greenie back to ya!

Enough tears to wash away the pain.

I don't know if there are enough.

Enough love to ensure that you never question if someone loves you.

I will never question if someone loves me, because I know you do.

Your pain is yours.. so why are you hanging on to it? Why not put it in the dumpster out back and let the garbage man take it away? What good is it doing you? Is it helping you to evolve? Are you learning from it? Or are you hiding behind it?

I'm hanging on to it til I don't have to anymore. The dumpster isn't big enough to hold it. Sometimes I think i'm learning from it, and sometimes I think i'm hiding behind or under it. I suppose the old saying is true, time heals all wounds. I'm just waiting for that time.

I understand what you're trying to say here, and I know it with all my heart. Someday I'll believe it too.

I love you Skwirllygirl! And wish Enough for you too.

This is truly beautiful, Sam. thanks for sharing it with us.
Sometimes it's difficult to realize that we really might deserve to be happy or to be loved. But when it happens, we hope that we do and that it wil last a lifetime.
