before I was dust

when I was but

a gleam

in my Father’s eyes

before my DNA

had a name

He knew me

Very interesting, few words that said it all. Very good subject. Kate

Hi VAS,

The one thing we can all fall back on when things are out of reach is this one fact, I loved the powerful impack this gives,

Love, Cerentiy

Powerfully simple and true! This is something that I could see on an inspirational picture, book mark or the like...I think it would be perfect.
