Come together

Nothing seems to bring people together

Than going trough a tragedy together

Or a common hate

Or a common problem

Or a common love

Probably in that order

I'm guessing

It's sad

Because we have so much more in common

Each and every one of us

So much more that unites us

In our hearts

In our soul

Than mere occurrences

Or happenstance

I try to live it, I really do

I try to teach my girls

All I can about life

Its pitfalls

And its glories

Even though I know

Deep down

They learn best and most

By example

Than  by words

I still say the words

Because I believe them

Even if I have a hard time 

Following them

At times

I am after all still trying

And only human

But I did tell my

Beautiful middle baby today

That 99.9%

Of people's unhappiness 

Can be solved

If people just liked themselves

I mean sure

After you've taken care of the basics

You know

Food/shelter/water

You really don't need much else in life

Throw in a few hugs, kisses and love

And you've got the full enchilada

Right there

And it don't cost a dime

Except for the food/shelter/water

Thing

This is why the idea of communes

Appeals to me so much 

Except I can't imagine one

Drama free (lol)

Am I right

Am I wrong

I know my truth

You've got to figure out yours for yourself

And when you know it

And you truly believe it

Please do let me know

I always love a good story

(Not judging it by any means)
