Life is rarely as serious as we believe it to be, and when we recognize this fact, it responds by giving us more and more opportunities to play.

I am going to the joy of being alive, like a butterfly that has emerged from its chrysalis into the promise of the light. I remind myself of the time that I was a child, discovering seashells on the beach or building castles in the sand without any concern that the waves might come and wash them away in the next moment. I know that life is a game, and I have to carry on with no sense of embarrassment or pretense.

I remind myself that something wonderful is just on the horizon, and I have just the right quality of playful innocence and clarity to welcome it with open arms...

Even though I might not need men- I still do wait for my Knight in Shining Armour
