I realised that I've been going through an ordeal lately.

I've been learning to be by myself.

I've been learning to like and accept who I am now, trying to change what I dislike.

I've been learning that it's really good to like your self, and really mean it deep down,

And not just tell yourself that you do.

I've been learning to ask out loud a question, to give myself a silent answer.

I've been learning to grow again,

(Maybe to a full 5 feet).

I've been learning that you have to show by example how to live happily, comfortably, morally, and sensibly. Even if it means you're actually getting through fear by confronting it.

Even and especially when it's for your children.

I dedicate this poem "A LITTLE PIECE OF ME"

For RIKKI, who, without knowing I was looking, helped me find my Fool on paper.
