THE FLOW OF LIFE
If the sky above seems cloudy,
And your are left out in the rain,
If your 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 your 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 genteleness 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,
Thank not what life owes you,
But at all you have to give,
Forget about tomorrow,
Then you can start to live,
So Bless this age your are living,
With the gifts you can bestow,
Don't disregard the stream of life,
Go gently with the Flow!

Friendship
If there is one ingredient
which adds warmth and love
to our lives...
it is Friendship.
If there is one relationship to
help us through all the others...
it is Friendship.
Friends surround us with
the beauty of their caring.
With friends we can share
what we see, what we feel
and what we love.
Friends help us with our problems
because they listen.
And as they listen
we begin to hear the language of
our own hearts.
With friends we can
walk along the remembered
paths of our lives and
completely share our experiences.
With friends we can work
the soil of forgotten dreams
that needed to be tended and
nurtured once again.
With friends we can
plant the seed
of our hearts
new dreams.
We can always return to a friend
like going back to a special place...
and find the same warm feeling
unchanged by time or distance.
Life gives us friends
so we can share the precious times
and memorable moments of
being children, and teenagers,
and adults, and parents,
and grandparents.
Life gives us friends
so we can share
the growing up...
and growing down
and old.
With friends we have a place to go
to be accepted and understood.
Together we can laugh.
Together we can cry.
Our thoughts are heard,
our feelings are held
in the heart of a friend.
With friends our lives are made
more full, more rich, more open,
beautiful and blessed !
