Just because
Because to-day's snow had no staying power, because it fluttered down, flirted with the asphalt, then melted to nothing; Because I know that the world will soon be buried under the stuff; Because I finally made a delicious alfredo sauce; Because I survived getting repeatedly raped by a man who was four times my size, then three times my size, then twice, and is now not large enough to ever hold me down again; Because I learned to love even after that, and even after experiencing the lies to which love has opened me up; Because I make more leaps of faith than ever before; Because I love the peaceful every bit as much as the raucous; Because I eat my sins and turn them into reconcilliations; Because I am not penurious; Because I am cynical, yet I still hope for the best; Because I admit to being fey; Because I am not afraid to believe in something; Because every now and again, I meet somebody who *doesn't* disappoint me; Because I act where others whine and sit at home; Because none of this is beyond any of us-- That is why I think it's worthwhile.
