Bounce off me
for I will show you love
Bounce off me
for I will lend a hand when the road looks rough
There is a place you can go to – a place where you’re safe
you don’t have to walk alone
Bounce off me
for I’ve been there and I’ve been engulfed by darkness
frightened by the pain that squeezes your heart
and the blood drips to the ground into a pool of lost dreams
Bounce off me
for I know you feel alone
but this I can promise you
You will never be alone
you have only decided that this was so
and you can just as easily remember that you will never be forsaken
Bounce off me
and remember your heart beats in tune with the perfect melody
suited for dancing on clouds
we jump from one to another
and flip ~ yes flip
we flip the bad to the good just like a switch
from dark to light
Bounce off me
for we share a bond that is as deep as you can imagine
be there for me and I’ll be there for you
Bounce off me for I’ll bounce off you
in this our beautifully created life
Blessitude

So sweet and loving and beautiful Lorrie! 🙂 So lovely that we are all here for each other! 🙂 Lots and lots of Love to you sweet soulsister! <3 <3 <3
Thanks Dearest Line!! I appreciate you so much 🙂
I have not traveled to your site yet…but I will be there soon. Heading into the weekend I hope all beautiful things are in your sight!!! 🙂
Love the imagery of “bouncing”! Hope you have a wonderful day!!
Thanks Julie! It was fun to write it! I really imagined us all bouncing off of one another…sometimes it is not good…but imagine if when we needed a pick me up we bounced into someone with super good energy…and then we get energized…Kind of like “Bouncing into God!” Love to you…have a super weekend! 🙂
so inspiring!
Thanks Kim!! Have a super weekend!
Some may think it trite to say we can “flip the bad to the good”, but bad is truly only bad if you say it is. I love that you recognize you can actually change reality through the way you think. Grab my hand…..and let’s go cloud jumping!
Yes!! Whatever meaning we give to something is what it “is!” And I for sure am learning that I am responsible for my reality…too many years playing a victim, I now take control of my thoughts…and therefore…my life. I have always thought that I could run and jump in the clouds…how much fun to do it with you!!! Thank you…
Lorrie, I love this generous song about confidence, sharing and love…
Many many lines I feel related to…
“you don’t have to walk alone”
“be there for me and I’ll be there for you”
“for I know you feel alone
but this I can promise you
You will never be alone”
And I love the repetition of “bounce off me”, very rhythmic.
Thank you for such powerful and energizing words of confidence.
xxoo

Dearest Frédéric (I’m so happy my phone allows me to include the accents on your name…because it feels more magnificent. ..like you!!)
You are so generous in your spirit…I can tell. Everything about you screams love. I pray you never feel alone…and I can tell you honestly. ..you will always have me to bounce off of…and I will always try to “energize you with confidence. ” Much love to you
oh Lorrie what a kind reply… magnificent… I’m not sure I am, I wish I were…. the etymology of Frédéric (Friedrich, a german first name) means something like “strong in peace”… so, I must try to desserve this meaning 🙂
Thanks again for the accents, it made me smile you know, it’s so sweet and kind from you 🙂 and f”merci encore” for your own generosity and kindness. People like you inspire me very much you know, because our broken world need caring men and women of good will. Much love to you xxoo
‘Strong in peace’….yes, that will do just fine. I like it. I think it suits you Fre’de’ric!! And we do need all the caring light givers in the world to unite!!! Much love to you…
Hi Lorrie, this is a fun and different perspective on love. I’ll bounce off you and love. Playtime! XD
Hi Brad!! Yes…it is playful and fun isn’t it! What a wonderful playground 🙂 To always have a child like love of play…can’t be a bad thing! Have a super weekend! ♡♡♡
Thanks, I always appreciate reminders to play! 🙂

Bounce Off Me
Super thoughts, Lorrie! My goodness, if only we all could adopt such an attitude toward others in life! You are teaching such great love here, and yet it is put to us in very simple terms. “Bounce” is one of my favs. you have done…
~Steve
I had to read this oldie again Steve to see what you saw. I’m so happy it is a fav of yours…it is simplistic but very heartfelt 🙂 Thanks for walking around in my blog! ♡
And that is exactly why I love it…it IS your heart speaking! The love and understanding in that thought is astounding, and such a great example!
And as for “walking around” in your blog, I enjoy the things I may find stored away in the attic or basement 🙂
Have a great one, Lorrie!
