I have a dream......

"I believe in angels,
Something good in everything I see,
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me......"

Yes! I went to see "Mamma Mia" last night. My favorite song is "I have a dream." Very poignant.

I do believe in angels. And I do believe there is something good in everything I see. It has been made clear to me over and over and over again that God works in all situations. Even the situations that make me think "Where is He?"

There are so many angels around me -- I hope I will be an angel to someone.

Who Am I?

Poem: "My Family"
By: Kathy Brown (probably in the mid-1970's: hopefully, I wasn't any older).

I received this poem in the mail today from my cousin Dawn. Apparently, I wrote it many years ago, as a young teen. She found it amongst paperwork in the "Mack" household. I find this quite repulsive as to me it shows a critical and judgmental spirit in me at quite an early age. I wholeheartedly apologize to my family members for any rotten thing I've thought or said over the years. Good grief. Sometimes I wonder, "Who Am I?"

Daddy knows how to argue
So that you will never win
Mom knows how to make coffee
That's as black and strong as sin.

Dale knows how to throw a punch
Just like Missy Mack
Judy is cold and distant
But she gets it all right back.

Karen seems small and delicate
Till you hear her when she's mad
Jacquelines just the oposite
But is really just as bad.

This is my whole family
And it's all you want to hear
Cause if I told you about myself
It would take nearly all the year.
