Gratitude



to all who have rekindled me 
at different times in my life--

my family, 
my dearest friends, 
my fellow Johnny fans, 
Tara, 
Patti, 
Johnny, 
my children especially,
and Life itself: 

all of you continue to show me 
in a thousand different ways 
that we can dare to dream--
and to do, and to be, and to love--
more 
than we might ever 
have thought possible.

with gratitude
and love, always,
