[hometext] => It is what it is...nothing more, nothing less...
[bodytext] => This journey began as a river... Flooded with crocodile tears... With only myself to save me... Against currents of guilt, shame and fear. Instead of swimming upstream... I decided to go with the flow... For it was too tiring to fight... I had to face what I know. It pulled me under at times... So much that I couldn't breathe... And just when I thought I'd surely die... I'd breach the surface and see. See the river becoming a creek... Leading me to a path... A path of self discovery... A path not paved in wrath. Wrath that held me down... That wouldn't allow me to just be... And as the creek grew more shallow... I finally stood and was free. I'm no longer in the river... I'm walking once again... Down this beautiful path... That changes the way I pen. Unknowing of where it will lead... I take each day anew... Breathe the air and walk lightly... Enjoying the wondrous view. I'm genuinely smiling again... For the first time in years... It feels so good to be free... Smiles suit me better than tears!
