If I could give a gift to you
That your heart could always hold.
It wouldn't be made of precious jewels
Or formed from purest gold.

The gift that I'd present to you
Would be safe in every way,
For friendship is the kind of gift
No thief can steal away.
I'd share your happy moments
And help you bear your pain.
I'd be there if you stumbled
To pick you up again.

I'd always wish God's best for you
And do everything I could.
To make your life a blessing
And see your dreams made good.

One song can spark a moment
... One flower can wake the dream

One tree can start a forest
... One bird can herald spring

One smile begins a friendship
... One hand clasp lifts a soul

One star can guide a ship at sea
... One word can frame the goal

One vote can change a nation
... One sunbeam lights a room

One candle wipes out darkness
... One laugh will conquer gloom

One step must start each journey
... One word must start each prayer

One hope will raise our spirits
... One touch can show you care

One voice can speak with wisdom
... One heart can know what's true

One life can make the difference

....I'm glad that I know you!

Words To Live By

Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.

Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Never buy a car you can't push.

Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you don't have a leg to stand on.

Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

The early worm gets eaten by the bird, so sleep late.

When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Ever notice that the people who are late are often much jollier than the people who have to wait for them?

If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?

You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors but they all have to learn to live in the same box.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Happiness comes through doors you didn't even know you left open.

Have an awesome day, and know that someone has thought about you today....

Today, Enjoy being with your friends and make the most of the day!!!!

Go With The Flow

If the sky above seems cloudy,
and you are left out in the rain,
If you are searching for a rainbow,
but the colors bring you pain,

If your world is not revolving,
and there is no end in sight,
If you are looking for the sunshine,
but all you see is night,

If all around are smiling,
but all you can do is frown,
If you are tired of all this living,
when life just brings you down,

Then look beyond your teardrops,
at the wonders of this land,
The beauty of a flower,
like velvet in your hand.

Feel the air around you,
the smell of new mown hay,
Laughing children in the park,
the innocence there at play,

Imagine floating with a butterfly,
as she flutters between the trees,
Or the whispers of the ocean,
on warm hot summer's breeze,

Think of the taste of candy floss,
as it melts upon your tongue,
Or the melody of morning birds,
as they greet each day with song;

Remember words of beauty,
told in your mother's embrace,
Feel the gentleness of her touch,
as she softly kissed your face.

Seek the good within you,
cast the clouds from your sky,
Don't look toward the pavement,
but hold your head up high.

Think not what life owes you,
but of all you have to give,
Forget about tomorrow,
then you can start to live.

So bless this age you are living in,
with the gifts you can bestow,
Don't disregard the stream of life,
Go gently with the flow.

I lie in bed each day at dawn,
As night turns into day.
I'd rather stay just where I am,
  It's not for me to say.

I thank GOD for each new day,
  And wonder what it holds.
The greatest joy that I can have,
  Is watch as it unfolds.

Will there be time to call a friend?
  Where will I go today?
Will GOD tell me to get to work?
   Or give me time to play?

But I remember what HE said,
  "I'll leave the choice to you."
"So go ahead and make your plan,
  To do what you want to"

Whatever I will do to today,
  I'll do it in HIS name.
I know what's right and what is wrong'
  I'll get credit or the blame.

We often say, "Luck passed me by"
  When things don't go our way.
You'll be surprised how 'Luck' will change,
  Once you learn how to pray.

So even though I'll miss my bed,
  I must rise up and shine.
Then everything, I dreamed about,
  GOD'S GRACE will make it mine.
