A Year for Me 
 
 
 
The world is my mollusk and I am its pennyweight paragon, witty girl that I am.  I have spent enough time surrounded by wet feet and confining shells, all held at the bottom of the sea.  This is a year for me.  I am going to climb over the rim of my briny brink and try myself against the fearsome winds of chance.  Although souse is buoyant I feel strong enough to stand my ground.  Time has come for life, open and raw, but I shall leave the clams to the casino.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Allow ticklish issues to make you laugh

HOLD THE LINE 
 
Relax is not the same as give up. 
Unwind is not fray. 
Letting go doesn’t mean never grab hold. 
 
It is important to have moderation in all things 
Including moderation, exuberance and enthusiasm, 
These are wonderful in their season 
Too much and I could get an adrenaline addiction. 
 
Make sure your song has more than one note 
And make sure you sing more than one song in your life. 
Change, interest and excitement are vital to my existence 
 
If you take all the spikes and ridges 
Out of your life line 
It means you’re Dead.
