Look around the world you're in,
And do so without the shaded eyes.
Hear the words and listen then,
Speak the truth and say no lies.

See the good in the one's you meet,
Don't always expect the bad to find.
Even the bitter can be changed to sweet,
Just use your soul, your heart, and mind.

Watch your actions, and take it slow,
Too many times we rush on through.
If you take the time to get to know,
The richer your life may be for you.

So be yourself and let others be,
Don't sweep a porch unless it's yours.
Start loving each other then you'll see,
Compassion and kindness will open doors.

Very good words to live by, this is, Serena.

i was digging around, and i found
this gem...thought it needed to see
the front page once again. beautiful
write, very uplifting, something I think
we could all use these days!
Happy Holidays,
Amy

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"
