Stopped

Really, Catharine.  You*re still writing about counting?  Yep.  It never did sit right with me, but I did it nonetheless.  Somehow it seems to be the common language.  Even the Church wanted to know my ASA (average Sunday attendance)... as if how many mattered.  I guess some counting will always be necessary. Obviously I will continue writing about this, because I don*t have it figured out yet... 

I have pretty much stopped

Counting people.

This seems a real exercise

In faith:

In the therapy office.

In church.

On the street.

Everyone simply matters

Together

And alone.

I have pretty much

Stopped

Counting

People

And hours spent.

Everything simply matters

Together

And alone.

Everything and everyone

Counts.
