			<description><![CDATA[Here is a poem (author is unknown) written down in Mattie's (Mimi) own hand and found among her possessions after she passed away. It reads:

I am divinely led.
I follow the right fork in the road.
God makes a way where there is no way.

The waters of my Red Sea part
And I pass over on dry land.
I now go forward into my Promised Land.

The ground I am in is holy ground.
I now expand into the divine plan of my life
Where all conditions are permanently perfect. ]]></description>
