I am from smiles and goodmornings
To sweet hugs at night
From the woods of camping
To roasting golden brown marshmallows.
From barks and meows
To slobbery pants and purrs.


I am from clicks on the dell top computer
To silent rings on the phone
From hanging with friends
And told to come home.


I am from wet splashes with the family
To laying on a summer night under the stars
From school dances and parties with friends
To telling deep dark secrets while catching a late movie.


I am from rough pain
And sharp happiness
But most of all where I am from
Are people who care
And people who I know will always be there.
