The Essentials

The practical essentials of life are food and shelter. (I lump clothing into shelter, for that is what clothes are.)

The grand esentials are something to do, something to love and something to hope for.

The final essential is a sense of belongingness and love.

As for me, I get the final essential from my family, my friends and my co-workers, but I have also been getting it from this journal.

Tonight Cristy commented that she loved and appreciated an entry.  Judi wrote that she related to it.  An 18-year-old lesbian from Texas IMed to share her appreciation.

I belong with my family, I belong with my friends, I belong with the family of man.

So do you.
