IHJ, I liked your description of acceptance as setting sail for a new place. It has a ring of adventure to it. Youthful happiness is only youthful happiness because life hasn't happened yet. It is easy to be happy when the bumps and bruises that life inevitably bring haven't happened yet. It is easy to beatifically smile into the future when all it holds is happily ever after.
I don't mind the sun sometime
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and Sugar
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through someone elses eyes
