As owner of Uplifting Thoughts I am obligated to state things of importance regarding mental health.

Despite what people might believe about spring as a wonderful time in the year the truth is different.

I talked to someone who works for mental health years ago and was told that spring has the most amount of mental health issues from the serious to the not so serious of any time in the year.  I am letting everyone know not to be fooled into thinking spring is a time of happiness.  It can be, but winter actually has a better chance at doing that!

Take care!

Someone was dancing 

Somewhere that no one dared

South from France

In a pond of pussy willows

As drops in the air

Came around and splashed

For a hundred years

For nothing

It meant something though

But that was code.

What do you do with a drunken sailor

On the poop deck

What makes him be that way

How can a man say

But he is like washed across the beach

Dreaming of things that can not be

All his journeys fantasy

Commanding the ocean

Is like commanding the heavens

A sailor never reaches the shore.

How can I let you in

When nothing begins

And it echos like an echo chamber

Every time 

I have a wall

And I can get stuck to it

Like velcro

Somewhat cold this wall

Like the energy on a wall

Something flat

Something strong

That we can not control.

I am not free as a butterfly

Wings don't come with my DNA

But there are other freedoms

And other rights

There are still times in my life

And the sun can still shine bright

Faith can fill me

Hopes can warm me

Reality can free me

But that door need to open

To let it in

In a way that assures me

For this comfort is like a beach

Water rolls in again and again.

Care bears have to care

This is happening

I am loved

Thanks to them

Care bears.

We can forget Santa now

We can look at babies instead

Notice their big alien heads

Their diamond laser eyes

Also notice their drool

How does a baby make such a mess

Never spoke with one directly

I'm not even sure if they are trust worthy

But a cute baby is even cuter with puppies and kitties

Over the top cuteness

That is perhaps what America demanding now

More jobs and very cute babies!

No it is not into but far from where

Has something like a bean

And Jack is not the wild sort

His cloud is not high

Yet his head is not lying around

While his heart is going from branch to branch

Then things began

That never were

Which he began to understand

And the moon smiles

And tips her hat

All the folly of fools

That can end

As the sun laughs.

The best days are yet ahead

Or if you wish

The worst days or ahead

One message

The first is really the only answer

It is almost an absolute

I believe it is okay to be wrong about this

Because it is a must

Not to be a fatalist

So say this now

Today is the best day!

I WILL GIVE TODAY MY BEST

I WILL GIVE IN TO HEALTH AND HEALING

I WILL BRING HOPE AND INSPIRATION TO OTHERS

I WILL CARE ABOUT OTHERS

I WILL SHOW THAT I CARE ABOUT ALL THIS

MY LIFE MATTERS TO ME

I CHERISH IT ALMOST ALWAYS

I HAVE A LOVE TO GIVE MYSELF AND OTHERS

I AM A UNIQUE AND IMPORTANT INDIVIDUAL

I AM CONNECTED TO EVERYTHING AND ALL THAT IS

TOGETHER THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH WILL MOVE THINGS FORWARD

DEEP DOWN EVERYONE IS THE SAME

DEEP DOWN EVERYONE IS GOOD

I AM LOVE MY PLACE AS A LIVING BEING

I LOVE FEELING ALIVE

EVERYTHING IS MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

MY SOUL FEELS FREE

AND LOVE IS IN THE AIR NO MATTER WHAT

I CAN BRING AMAZING THINGS TO THIS COSMIC SOUP

GOOD FEELINGS ARE AVAILABLE TO ME RIGHT NOW 

Ever looked into a marble

In the direction of a marvel

You can see everything it seems

In that little magic spot

A universe the size of a grain of sand

Things are dynamic

Life has it's own plans

Dreams have their own life

Animals live like angels

Winter is gone

And spring is here.
