I love a beautiful sunrise,
Except when I am driving due east and the brightness of the sunrise is in my eyes,
I love a beautiful sunset and the illuminated clouds of bright colors in gorgeous skies,
Except when I am driving west and there is a glare from the sunset in my eyes,
I guess what I am trying to say today in a round about way,
There are exceptions to the rule due to different settings that "come what may".

June 28- "Third Degree" By Susan Pearl
Whenever I choose to make a decision that I think is best for me,
I know there are some people who will give me the "third degree",
And so I think this an important part of living and being free,
Is to respect but rise above what others "third degree" want me to be,
And to know we can agree to disagree,
So being given the "third degree" is part of the my "progress" philosophy,
Because if I'm not strong enough to withstand a "third degree" you see,
Chances are I won't have the strength to make it to where I want to be.

June 27- "My Glass" By Susan Pearl
Is the glass half full or half empty,
Both answers are really correct,
They say one outlook is positive,
The other outlook is negative,
But I wonder who's glass is it?
If it is my glass,
And there is only half amount to go,
I will drink the remaining liquid definately a little slow,
And try to enjoy and make it last,
Before it becomes a part of my past.

June 26- "Common Translator" By Susan Pearl
There was a person who seemed so distant and unfriendly,
Indifference was the atmosphere of being near to this person,
We both spoke English but it was like we didn't speak the same language,
It was like we couldn't understand each other's point of view,
One day we happened to be waiting in the same room,
A radio was playing ever so softly in the background,
While waiting this person suddenly got up from a chair and went over to the radio,
Then the person turned the volume of the radio to be higher while explaining that the song playing was a favorite,
I listened and heard one of the most beautiful and sentimental songs that I have ever heard,
Even though this person and I didn't seem to communicate well, music became a common translator between us,
Because the beautiful song playing on the radio became a favorite song of mine, too,
So, I know that if this former distant acquaintance and I would have to be together today,
There is a common song we both would enjoy to hear it play more so than any words we could say, and that's o-kay.

June 25- " The Overall Picture " By Susan Pearl
In my opinion, I think it is important to admit our mistakes but not to dwell on them, for sure,
Remember successful efforts, learn from setbacks, and keep seeing the overall picture.

June 22- "The Spring Chick Show" By Susan Pearl
The roots of my gray hair color are starting to show,
My, how fast they grow,
Time to get out the bottle of hair dye,
And I really wonder why,
Because I already know,
I'm not going to win any prize in a spring chick show.

June 21- "Worthwhile Feelings" By Susan Pearl
It is best to choose wisely what we put our time and energy into,
Because our time is fleeting and our resources are depleting, too,
And worthwhile feelings will last past when we are done and when we are all through,
So it is best to choose wisely in whatever we say and in whatever we do,
That's when we apply the true rules of conservation to ourself and we will understand,
Our talents, time, and abilities have been used for the best and as wisely as we can,
Giving us worthwhile feelings of time well spent, talents well used and life has been grand.
