I love this world!

I do.

I love this world —

Yes, it hurts sometimes.

Yes, unimaginable loss sneaks up on you without so much as a warning shot across the bow.

But

sunsets

showers

dogs

lovers

children

cake

and

zesty friendship

and

trees trees trees.

Please — there is more to love, more to hold in trembling awe — than there is to hate.

If you could spill all life into an hour — 

and alot the good and the bad

easily there would be only one measly minute for the bad

and fifty-nine to the good
