About the author ...

I am not a writer, I am just someone who needs to write.
Charmaine M.

Thinking:
​My heart doesn't explain itself to me.  It beats & I must dance.  If I want to live, I must dance to the beat.

"This is a subtle truth:  whatever you love, you are."
Rumi​

"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
   Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
​Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."
William Butler Yeats
