Dear Shirley:

This may be the most beautiful, encouraging, uplifting poem I read in decades. Can I post it in a new thread so more people can read it? I will post it stating that Shirley, you, wrote it yesterday. You can copy it and post it in a new thread yourself, it will be better that way, and you can invite people to write their thoughts about it. Please let me know what you decide on this?

Your latest post is wise and uplifting as well. You are on a roll, Shirley! I like the handling of fear by Jaguar Paw as well as the message to him by his father on fear. And I am still pondering the concept you introduced to me the other day, that horror can encourage (Paw/ a person) to run/ fight, face fear, survive and triumph!

My goodness, Shirley. You got it. Please do come back to your own latest posts so to re-encourage yourself!

And let me know about posting your poem…?
