off color world...
Heather: Horton! We've all got our own little clovers with worlds on them!
Jessica: Mine is called Jessica-Land and everyone worships Queen Jessica because Jessica is so beautiful!
Katie: In my world, everyone's a pony nad they all eat rainbows-and poop butterflies!

from Horton Hears a Who
I hate to admit it,
but it is true
even though I try to keep my eyes open
to the worlds of others,
I have my own little clover with my own little world sitting right there on top and my life revolves around this abode.
The off-color world is a fun place to live
people say what they mean and mean what they say.
We laugh and joke
argue and scream occasionally
and
live bound together by our off-color slang
and
even though
there are times we do not even like each other
we are always
encapsulated with
a mysterious band
of connective love.
It
holds us together
and
makes life worth living
and splashes our world
with
adventure, spontaneity and wonder.
I've spent my whole life
looking for ways to change the world,
make it better,
and
while all of that is good and all
I realize at the end of the day
I live on an off-color clover
where life is good
except when they all get on my nerves
and
laughter keeps us floating
up toward the sky and
love,
ah love,
nourishes us,
gives us hope,
enfolds us
and
keeps us growing.
I still want to change the world,
still have that intuitive desire to
spread goodness,
help others have a piece of the pie,
but
for this Monday hazy headed morning,
I am thankful
for
a tiny little world
atop
an
off-color clover
called
"off-color universe"
where
people say
whatever they want
and
Big Daddy and off-color daughter
color the walls with off color sayings
and
laughter
pulls us up
lifts us up
to hope
and
colors our world.
Sexy Hot mama...
is there to make the place look sexy hot
and
the off color son
is there to attract the honey bees for sweetness and give us all something to poke fun at......
and
together
we rule in our off color kind of way.
Come on over and visit sometime...
we have this little world
our own little world
called
off color paradise
and
though---- off color----
it is a great place to live and grow and be!!!
Thankful for my world atop my clover today---
Happy Monday...

I think it's great that you have your own little world! Yes, we should be thoughtful and kind to others, but our lives are important, too. Sometimes I wish I could wrap my family in a bubble and just live there for awhile. The world just moves too fast sometimes, and it doesn't slow down for us to work out whatever issues need to be worked out. Living on our own clover or in a bubble would give us that time. Ahhh... for now I will be satisfied with Sunday afternoons- the time we devote to family and regrouping, the time we DO get to live in the little bubble, if even just for a few hours. Have a GREAT week!
