Perch...

The strange thing about life is that you go through it hoping to achieve some goal - reach some status...always pressing toward some mark. Your'e daily walk is more like a run. You are moving so fast that "time flies."

But, if you spent time doing what birds do...PERCH...rest upon a tree to look around every now and again, you'd realize that the point of the "flight" is so that you can pause and appreciate the beauty of all that is around you along the way.

Soooo...

Love your family...hug your friends...kiss yourself in the mirror...take pride in the YOU that you are. Be your own best friend...then share a piece of you with someone else. Laugh until you cry. Cry until you laugh. Breath deeply as often as you can. Scream when you feel like it (but only in places where it is appropriate LOL). Put on your finest robes and killer heels because they're yours (or borrowed from your BFF, LOL). Sleep in. Hang out. Let loose. Stay tight. Flaunt your sexy. Share your sweet. Dream big. Live bigger. Stretch your heart and your head. Flex your muscle. Feel the burn. Love til it hurts...but do love again. Spend wisely. Treat yourself. Stop worrying! Hold a baby. Have one! Fight for what you believe in. As a matter of fact...believe in something. Find God and talk to him (or her) often. Trust with all of your heart. Be honest. Stay open. Fear not. Fuel up on faith. Be bold. Be daring. Smile, it helps. Believe that nothing is easy, but most things are doable. Know that happiness is a decided state of being. Choose wisely.

Throw caution to the wind...jump off the cliff! The "top" is always higher than where you are, so you have to jump. You'll FLY...but most importantly, know when to PERCH and LIVE! That's why we're here...

Middy is...
