More From Anne Lamott

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.

Just me, just me sweet marie, she loves just me (she also loves maurice mcghee). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves louise dupree). no she don't, she loves just me (she also loves the willow tree). no she don't, she loves just me! (poor, poor fool, why can't you see she can love others and still love thee.)
Sweet Tree Fool
From woman, man is born; within woman, man is conceived; to woman he is engaged and married. woman becomes his friend; through woman, the future generations come. when his woman dies, he seeks another woman; to woman he is bound. so why call her bad? from her, kings are born. from woman, woman is born; without woman, there would be no one at all.

The little boy and the old man said the little boy, "sometimes i drop my spoon." said the old man, "i do that too." the little boy whispered, "i wet my pants." i do that too," laughed the little old man. said the little boy, "i often cry." the old man nodded, "so do i." but worst of all," said the boy, "it seems grown-ups don't pay attention to me." and he felt the warmth of a wrinkled old hand. i know what you mean," said the little old man.
Mean Men Boys
We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. we make friendship with woman and the lineage continued because of woman. when one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? the woman is born from woman; there is none without her. only the one true lord is without woman
