Weightless is what I want to be completely free so I forgive my mother for not giving me her beautiful full lips forgive my father for passing on to me the genes that make me anxious and apprehensive forgive my husband for every business trip he’s taken without me I forgive every twenty- something who doesn’t notice me anymore my best friend for the distance between us I forgive my teacher for that accumulated indifference my memory for taking specific events and wearing them thin and slippery and treacherous I forgive myself for not always being productive for wanting to watch TV sometimes for not possessing the esthetic sense to know what color to paint my dining room wall

Breathless. I like your inclination to forgive.
I forgive you for calling me a twenty something
Amit, if you were a twenty something, that category would not be so easily forgiven. :)
White is always a good background for paintings but beige goes nicely with the new floors.
Big kiss, full lips.

CM, I'm actually leaning towards red. I'll send you pictures!
