To know what life is all about and
accept that all things may not be good paves
the day when turmoil begins to disappear.
To know that what you do is for you,
is better than imprudent attempts to do for others,
who rarely understand the fire of intent.
To look toward tomorrow and its sunrise
brings a return of goodness to the soul
and when it comes then you can smile.
To hold what you feel is dearest to you,
to keep the memories locked in your heart each day,
keeps them safe from the will of others.
To speak the truth of what and who you are,
of recognizing and accepting your ups and down
will make the person you strive to be the person that you are.
To cry a tear, to laugh out loud, to be quiet as you wish
are choices within your being and not within the realm
of others to change you as they wish.
To grasp the sunshine as you can and
splash your feet within the puddle from the rain
is on the day you can say “I am fine and I will not change!”
