so when I wrote and gave you a free ticket
I was trying to simply do this
to let you know
whoever you are
that you are allowed to change
if you want
at least you are allowed to try
i am pretending that there is someone out there
who needs someone to say to them
it's ok- you are allowed to throw in the towel
and rearrange and realign and regain.
you no longer have to be what you have been.
you can quit smoking quit drinking with help
seek therapy- alternative or not
you can go back to school
you can get a new hair-do
and wear yellow
you can diet or never diet again
you can blog or not
buy an I-phone or not
you can sell your house
sell your pointy shoes
buy Birkenstocks or not
start baking or stop baking all together
visit the Taj or Empire State
or grow a garden in your own backyard
who cares?
I think change can be fantastic
or tragic
but what i am talking about right now
is the good kind
the refreshing kind
the surprising conversion of Saul
or the merriment of recovery of a poor marriage
or the blessed growth of a mother-daughter relationship
born again friends
make overs and spa days
Just Do It by Nike
and all other positive commercial slogans that actually make you want
to sprout wings and dance into something interesting for once
goodness me
needless identity bondage never did anyone any good
