I am From...

I am from pointe shoes, Windex, and crayons.
I am from music-filled bedrooms and busy kitchen.
I am from the tulips, the windmills.
I am from Imperial Beach and freckles, from King and Dopp.
I am from 6 siblings, and lots of laughter.

I am from "It's just growing pains," and "practice makes permanence!"

I am from where love is spoken, where scriptures are read.
I'm from Europe, chocolate cookies, and David's Pizza.
I am from the Paris trip and the audition days.
From the ten-year-old trip to San Fransisco,
the emerald pants and the dance costumes.
I am from the old frames, the pictures inside them, and the legacies they breathe.
From the 3 inch scrapbooks and the family blog.
I am from everything that makes me me.

Such fun! Thanksgiving with the Siskins ....And everybody else ;)

Happiness wants to come into your life, in fact, it already has, so acknowledge and befriend it. Make it deeper and better with gratitude, consistence and effort. The good in the world is apparent and abundant, just like happiness. Focusing on the good doesn't mean we ignore the sad stuff going on, refuse to ever watch the news, or be ignorant of pressing matters around the world. It just means that you cling to hope, never give up, fight discouragement and let the good into your life. Let the good in, put some good out, let light radiate fr...
