layers...

one thing on top of another...

one color on top of another...

one season on top of another...

Thursday night will end that...

31...

God made everything with layers...

you...

me...

it was Shrek that said he was like an onion...

not meaning stinky...

but he had layers...

I can be...

good, bad...

kind, mean...

open, shut down...

friendly, shunning...

dorky, cool...

cute, semi-cute...

ok, I lied there...

shhhhh...

quiet, loud...

brave, totally chicken...

saint, sinner...

it's all me...

just in layers...

and they are one on top of the other...

it's up to me which layer I show...

which layer wins today...

what do others see when they look at me?

I know it's not always good...

if I had a halo...

it would be cock eyed...

that's for sure...

but I try...

I work at it...

I don't want to disappoint myself...

God...

rainy days make the colors more intense...

so do the darker days of  our lives...

they make our colors more intense...

more visible...

to others...

we are more open then...

our guard is down...

because that's when we need help more...

we open up to let go and take in...

trading bad for good...

that's why we are closer after trauma...

turmoil...

we have seen more layers...

I am not sure who this is for...

it just came...
