twas the night before Christmas...

...in wordle form!

Merry Christmas Eve friends!

Just a little wordle using one of my favorite poems.
Happy Friday friends!

You Learn

After a while you learn the subtle difference

Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning

And company doesn't mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts

And presents aren't promises,

And you begin to accept your defeats

With your head up and your eyes open

with the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,

And you learn to build all your roads on today

Because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans

And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.

After a while you learn...

That even sunshine burns if you get too much.

so you plant your garden and decorate your own soul,

Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure...

That you really are strong

And you really do have worth...

And you learn and learn...

With every good-bye you learn.

by Jorge Luis Borges

Inspired by Mel over at I Speak Melsh I decided to do a wordle from my posts over the last week. I'm so glad I rediscovered this site as I had done a few of these a couple years back for Archer's scrapbook.

Thanks Mel (glad I found you via True Stories - so much good coming from that class!).

Happy Friday friends!
