"When we walk to the end of all the light we have, and take a step into the darkness of the unknown, we must believe one of two things will happen: that we will land on something solid, or we will learn to fly."

To Each his own

I cannot change the way I am,
I never really try
God made me different and unique,
I never ask him why.
If I appear peculiar,
There`s nothing I can do,
You must accept me as I am,
As I`ve accepted you.

God made me a casting of each life,
Then through the old away,
Each child is different from the rest,
Unlike as night from day.

So often we will critisize,
The things that others do,
But,do you know,they do not think,
The same as me and you.

So God in all his wisdom,
Who knows us all by name,
He didn`t want us to be bored,
That`s why we`re not the same!

"I will not wish thee riches nor the glow of greatness, but what wherever thou go some weary heart shall gladden at thy smile, or shadowed life know sunshine for awhile. And so thy path shall be a track of light, like angels` footsteps passing through the night." -Words on a church wall in Upwaltham,England

Reach For Your Star

Do not take anything
as being forever,
because forever is only
as long as today.

Know that the people
who are the richest
are not those who have the most
but those who need the least.

That we are in our strongest
when life is at its worst,
and at our weakest when life
no longer offers a challenge...

That it is wiser not to expect,
but to hope,
for in expecting,
you ask for disappointment,
whereas in hoping
you invite surprise.

That unhappiness doesn`t come from
not having something you want,
but from the lack
of something inside you need.

That there are things to hold
and things to let go,
and letting go doesn`t mean you lose,
but that you acquire
that which has been waiting around the corner.

Most of all...
remember to use your dreams
as a way of knowing
yourself better,
and as an inspiration
to reach for your star.

Sunset

All the days I thought
Could never end,are gone.
All the days that
seemed so far away have passed.
All the loves I thought
would last forever
have died.

So many happy moments
are now happy memories.
But...I still have tomorrows
filled with the
hope of things to come,
and although I watch
the sun set now,
I know
it will rise again.
