Thank you, O Great and Mighty Oz... for the heart

When a man's an empty kettle
He should be on his mettle
And yet I'm torn apart
Just because I'm presumin'
That I could be a human
If I only had a heart

I'd be tender, I'd be gentle
And awful sentimental
Regarding love and art
I'd be friends with the sparrows
And the boy that shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart

BUT you made my dreams come true!

Thanks and blessings...
now I have faith in humanity,
or at least the sweet ones here at DU.

So cool when somebody "hearts" you! Very good for the morale! It does make one feel like celebrating. And you're deserving! Pretty damn cool when you get evidence of it from outside your own self! It's very validating, and in this ultra-critical world it's a good thing. Congrats!

And whoever "hearted" me, thank you and thank you!!!
