ALL I REALLY NEED:

thought this quite apt in my situation
(Perhaps my 2 children will read this)

ALL I REALLY NEED:

My wants are few my friends,
This lonely existence at my heart do tug.
All I really need
Is just a loving hug.

To prove that someone cares
In this world so wide.
Come, give me a hug
As you stand by my side.

I don't ask for wealth
As I have that in the beauty around me.
All I really need
Is someone's arms around me.

Loneliness like laughter is contagious
This I have you know.
I know which one I prefer,
Come let your feelings show.

So that I can laugh again,
If only at myself.
All I need is some TLC
Not monetary wealth.

  2. Everything will be alright.

    You could be dressed in a bear costume
    with a pulled muscle
    and you tell everyone you can't dance
    but they can't hear you
    because you're wearing
    a big fake bear head!!!

    Everything will be alright (smile).

  6. Hugs for you!
    And for some reason, this didn't show up in my Feedly reader. I came by way of my blogroll. Will keep an eye on that.

  8. You've expressed a need that we all have in one way or another. Sending hugs and encouragement your way. Pass them on to someone you encounter in your daily life who needs a lift. There are plenty of people around you who need what you need and will accept what you can provide to them.
