There realy always is a light
In the darkest of our life
Even if we choose to be blind
By all the clouds with-in our mind
Sometimes it takes another set
Of eyes to see the rays
Of hope and potential
Of all our future days
So don't ever be afraid to
Ask for help when your soul
Is full of doubt
For reaching out for
Strength and Growth
Is what life is supposed
To be about
Just choose wisely
The words that are worth keeping
For there are those
Around us
Whom are simply just
Self seeking

           Thank You

You are so right. Sometimes it takes seeing life through someone elses eyes to imagine its potential. Interesting.

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
