A Toast

Let us raise our glasses to the guest of honor.
You, you sneaky little one,
are so cunning and sly,
ever the jokester,
But always coming to our side when we're lonesome
And mussing our hair in times of need.
Yes, we've all known you for quite some time.
And though you're quite the traveler,
popping in when we least expect,
Only those who've known you well,
those who've let you crash at their place
for days on end,
Only those people can truly appreciate what you really give;
why this world wouldn't be the same without you;
why, even when you overstay your welcome, we love you just the same.
So here's to you, Uncertainty!
May you creep in when we least expect it,
May you rock us down to our core,
And may you stay just long enough to flip our world upside down.
Because without you, Uncertainty, Old Friend,
We'd never know how gratifying it is
when we close the door after you've left us...
Cheers!


(this is what happens when you find yourself contemplating the direction of your life....you start personifying Uncertainty, the creep, for causing you to question & then thank him once you realize that WITHOUT the questioning, WITHOUT the UNcertainty, CERTAIN could never feel so good)
