update from Shady (replies are most welcomed)

"Hi all,

Today is Wednesday March 13th. I am doing very well today. I have gained a lot of insight and know there is a purpose for my being. But, knowing is only half the battle. The other half is doing. Doing for me is accepting life on life's terms. I must live for today only and never look past the time that I know I have, which is today, right now. I'm still not sure when I will be out, but I am okay. I am better than okay, I am content. I hope you all are well. I will chat with you at my earliest convenience.

Love and Huggles,
Shady"

Poem from Shady

Pale Reflections dance upon the water,
showing me beauty, strength, courage and hope.
Allowing me to see the truth of who I am.
Beauty from acceptance of life's struggles.
Strength for facing challenges head on.
Courage for fighting the next battle.
and Hope that I will always have the desire
to do and be better.
As I see who I am and who I can be the
water stills itself with resolution.
God in His infinite wisdom plots my course.
