HAPPY NEW MONTH!

“The months roll by like wheels on a wheelchair. Pretty soon it’ll be July. Feels like just last month it was May.
”
― Jarod Kintz, Seriously delirious, but not at all serious

Dear May!

May you remind me that hard times do not last,
That happiness begets those who are truly open to receiving,
Remind me that unforgettable moments are easy to forget,
That there is no place like HOME,
May i be open to new ways of doing old things,
May i be open to giving second chances no matter how much i hurt,
Remind me that joy cometh in the morning, No matter how hard i cry in the night.
May i count my blessings, even when i don't feel very blessed.
For there is strength  in gratitude.

HAPPY NEW MONTH!

FOR WE ARE JOLLY GOOD FELLOWS...WHICH NOBODYCAN DENY!

I share my birthday with an amazing group of people.
I have read their writings, watched their productions, listened to their music... and learned plenty from their struggles. In one way or another, i have carried a piece of them with me for years without even knowing it.

 “April hath put a spirit of youth in everything. (Sonnet XCVIII)”
― William Shakespeare

April brings together all my favorite things:
My Birthday, Jazz, Rains, Poetry, Easter, Spring..
It's my Birth Month, Jazz Appreciation Month, National Poetry Month, Easter Celebrations, Soothing April showers and the start of spring :)
As  i turn a year older, i am doing things different this year. Rather than doing an inventory of what i have not achieved in the past year, i am celebrating the present: Where i am right now.

Dear April this year,
Not otherwise,Than April of a year ago,
I have patiently awaited your arrival,
A symbol that a brand new chapter has began,
May i blush in the noon-day sun and the evening rains,
May serenity be my God given portion,
May my aroma of success permeate through the right vents,
Leaving behing a scent of gratitude and love,
May i shine, radiate, reflect the beauty of the God in me ..
A symbol that he has blessed me with good things... Family, Friends, A spiritual Father :)) April this year ... I am glad you are here.
