Magnificent
Oh, oh, magnificent
I was born, I was born
To be with you in this space and time

After that and ever after
I haven't had a clue only to break rhyme
This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue, oh, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar

I was born, I was born to sing for you
I didn't have a choice but to lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to

You've got to ..

I am ridiculously behind - as you might have noticed - and as we get deeper into the holiday season I will be falling behind-er & behind-er-er. Time and Life are being a little mean to me lately. I have decided, thus, to prepare a ridiculously huge feature with your Beautiful works.
I would like to thank each and every friend, watcher, visitor & stranger for their time and support this past year. This virtual world is a place of peace for me, a sanctuary, a haven and a school. I have been truly blessed to 'meet' some amazing people I would have never known and to make bonds which I know will last for always - 'my' always, at least.
No matter how you celebrate, or not, make the most of every single day you've got.
May you never be without hope, friendship & love. May you never lose faith to the few,
to the true, to the better.
Peace. :iconmrplz:

Spirit Day 2012"Ultimately, I want Spirit Day to make just one person feel little bit better about his or herself, to feel safe enough in their own skin and to be proud of who they are" - Brittany McMillan
In memory of the young LGBT people who lost their lives to suicide, Brittany encouraged her friends to wear purple on a day in October -- a day that came to be known as Spirit Day. Since then, GLAAD has helped turn Spirit Day into a global event that inspires millions of individuals, celebrities, TV personalities, media outlets, companies and schools to wear purple in a stand against bullying.
While Spirit Day does focus on the LGBT community, I believe that it's anti-bullying message is relevant to every community. It only get's better, if we take the pledge to make it so.
Practice compassion and understanding, and treat others how you would like to be treated and we can make a difference.
Show your support for this anti-bullying me
