I am from a place of great leaders,
like "yes we can" and the land of Lincoln.
I am from a place where the foods are rich in taste,
and the cultures are diverse.
I am from a place that is flat, windy, and called "the Hulk",
of lakes that flow.
I am from a people who endures, and are strong.
I am from a people who believes his eye is own the sparrow,
and he is on time, which gets them through those valleys.
I am my mother's daughter, and
I am my father's child.
I am greatness.
I am love.
I am going places I never been.
I am going forward and never backwards.
I am of a place... of a people.... who just keeps going.

Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI love the sense I get from reading about Chicago, especially. Pittsburgh seems similar-- the working, industrial, blue-collared people, who make the world go round are also some of the most genuine and kind people that you will ever meet!
