Happy Mars Direct!

15. Bless you Muriel...

I try to see with compassion..into what motivates them to judge...
sometimes stepping out of myself... helps me get beyond the judgments.

I've lived for years trying to make everyone happy,
but I've learned that I'm not here to make everyone happy..
I have a goal and a path to get there, but pleasing everyone
isn't it. I try to be pleasant, helpful, loving,
and if in some small way I can help you on your journey,
but ...

I guess too much scar tissue has built up around my battered,
oft-broken heart. Don't like who I am, or what I do?
That's life....

sounds callus I guess... but life is too short to dance
to the tune of another's music...
