dear God~

"Dear God,’ she prayed, 

‘Let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. 

 Let me be gay; let me be sad.  

 Let me be cold; let me be warm.  

 Let me be hungry . . . have too much to eat.  

Let me be ragged or well dressed. 

    Let me be sincere–be deceitful.   

Let me be truthful; let me be a liar.  

Let me be honorable and let me sin. 

 Only let me be something every blessed minute.  

 

 And when I sleep, let me dream all the time 
so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.’”

                                                                             -“A Tree Grows in Brooklyn”  Betty Smith

A passionate yes and amen~

With love *overfilled* today,
