My favorite birthday present
Dec. 7th, 2003 07:42 amThe only fools in life are those that never leave their shell to realize the lightness of being.
( But first a story... )
Friday, the day before my birthday, a package arrives in the mail for me. It's a Christmas present, but through a couple of odd twists of fate it arrives on the day before my birthday. It is covered with threats about how it will turn into oatmeal if I open it before Christmas, but on Saturday the sender is so excited she wants me to open it right away. It's a picture that she'd found that had once belonged to her mother. It has a picture of a house on a beach with a wrap around porch. And written on it is:
If my dreams could all come true
Paradise would be
In a little bungalow
Somewhere
By the sea
