Have fun with your life
don’t let anyone undo that.
Make Bob Mackie gowns out of towels
or wear a necklace of pearls
and smile and laugh as you do it.
There is more to this world than just boys and just girls,
it’s time that we all embrace that.
Be good to yourself
and to everyone else.
Feel good about yourself
and everyone else
and if you feel you can’t do it
ask for support if you need help
because everyone has the right to be themself.
We all deserve respect
and we all have room for compassion,
and at the end of the day
remember to be grateful for all that happens.
If we all took pride in ourselves and everyone else
this world could be wonderful,
true and not false.
A Patient Voice 
I agree, this is a lovely piece of work!

You speak the truth Harlon. I think Bob Mackie was an original Hollywood Designer. 🙂 Hugs

It’s never easy to look and feel
Let alone at your best
People now a days are very insensitive
And write checks that their
Mouth can’t cash
I’ve been in the vortex of
The vacuum of life
For way to Long
If you come in contact
With someone who doesn’t have a life
Just smile and move out there way
Great post
As Sheldon Always

This makes me want to stand up, cheer, “Yes!,” and dance. I’m doing that in my head. And when I do get up, there will be a spring in my step. 🙂

Thanks, the writing was inspired by a friend of mine who is celebrating Pride in San Diego. I think every day should be Pride Day, pride for everybody. 🙂 Peace, Harlon
