… I am alive, and fiercely, joyously and gratefully so.
I remember 31 years ago, at 800 PM, and though others mourn and lament my failures, I rejoice and am glad in this day, every year before and every year since.
Cus I am not dead.
I am just no longer a caterpillar.
Do Justice. Love Mercy. Walk Humbly. Love, Charissa
Charissa's Grace Notes 
You SHOULD rejoice. You are not dead. You are more alive than you have ever been.
You are certainly not a caterpillar, sweet one.
Certainly not.
Did you listen to the song? I rarely post songs to go along, but when I do, they are integral to the entire truth of the post…and this one even more so
Yes, I did.
