Think about getting rich:
friendships are priceless, time is invaluable,
health is wealth, and love is a treasure.

Create a nest egg of beautiful memories
that you can dip into from time to time
to ease any sorrows.

Have the kind of remembrances
that raise you up with their worth
and keep you there with their wonder.

Always have a secret supply of hopes on hand
to help you plan your tomorrows.
Remember that when you invest in your dreams
it is impossible to overpay.

Give away smiles,
and watch them come back to you
a hundred times over.

Stuff your pockets with kindness and optimism;
there is nothing more precious in the world.

I'm sharing this advice with you today
because you are an important piece
in the puzzle of my life.

More then just
Life
We owe them
Happiness
We owe them
Our own happiness
For our pain is
Their heritage
We owe them
Courage
We owe them
Our own courage
For our failure is
Their curse
We owe them
Laughter
We owe them
Our own laughter
For our desperation
Is their burden
It breaks their backs
It weights them down
It makes them drown in
The silent undercurrents of
Our own unshed tears

Courage is the strength to stand up
When it's easier to fall down and lose hold.

It is the conviction to explore new horizons
When it's easier to believe what we've been told.

Courage is the desire to maintain our integrity
When it's easier to look the other way.

It is feeling happy and alive, and moving forward
When it's easier to feel sorry for ourselves and stay.

Courage is the will to shape our world
When it's easier to let someone else do it for us.

It is the recognition that none of us are perfect
When it's easier to criticize others and fuss.

Courage is the power to step forward and lead
When it's easier to follow the crowd; their pleas resound.

It is the spirit that places you on top of the mountain
When it's easier to never leave the ground.

The foundation of courage is solid,
The rock that doesn't roll.

Courage is the freedom
Of our mind, body, and soul!

Strength beckons,
Strength bonds,
Strength comforts,
Strength weakens,
Love is strength,
Yet strength is
Non-controlling.

Courage is doing what is right
Without having to be told
Courage is manning up
When you know you've done something wrong
Courage is looking the enemy in the eye
And telling them to just bring it
Courage is having fear
But still staying strong
Courage is facing adversity
But being able to overcome it
Courage is leaving your family behind
To defend the country you love
Courage is being a soldier
In the greatest army in the world
Thank you for this courage
That lets us live free..

The strength to rise from the pain,
to continue at all cost,
The strength to prolong all the shame,
Knowing that you've lost,
The strength to smile, when all you feel is anger,
to substitute bad days, for the best ones you can remember,
The strength to say 'I'm lost' when your pride has blocked your sight,
to say 'please love me', though I've never done it right,
The strength to say you love them, knowing there may be no reply,
to stay by their sides at times, when all they do is cry,
the strength to try again after many times of failing,
to finally open up after many years of waiting,
The strength to fall in love, though sacrificing your heart,
to keep a loved one close while knowing you've grown apart,
The strength to say ' I love you' when all else has gone wrong,
to keep on waiting for you..... regardless of how long,

A demon holds my heart
Gripping tightly, suffocating me
Then I beg
Upon my knees
For you to come & set me free
The love you give to me
It's enough to loosed it's grip
Still, it holds me tightly
Pulling me farther into the depths of Hell
A fallen, broken angel I am
My wings blackened,
Ripped away
I am ashamed of what I have become
So lost & afraid
I know I don't deserve you
But please,
Don't cast me out
Don't shun me
Like so many others
Love me still
Despite my worthlessness
For you are my strength
& You are my weakness

Changes, Changes every day
Focus and let nothing disturb your way.

Think of the times in your life that were good,
Forget all the sorries, the letdowns, the shoulds.

Try something different, try something new,
our moments are precious, we have but a few.

Listen to people and plant a few seeds,
You may slowly realize it rids you of weeds.

Courage, and hope, and strength are just words,
But if we believe we can soar like the birds
