How do I stand tall
when my whole world
comes falling down?

How do I move on
when I have no idea
where to go?

How do I stay strong
when my will to fight
has grown so weary?

How do I belong
when I've been an outcast
for all this time?

How do I let go
when what I hold
is all I've known?

How do I begin again
when all this seems
like it will never end?

How?  With faith, hope and love.  Danni, don't allow yourself to be a fatality, make your life's legends, only you have the power to do that.  Are you smiling now?


 The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate.

Lostboy-Thank you. Always nice to know that I bring you some enjoyment.  
Isis-I'm missing a couple of those ingredients, but I do have faith. It's what keeps me fighting to find my happiness. Just sometimes the fight becomes so much harder. Ya know?  By the way,   , yeah, I'm smiling!

One small step at a time, danni.

Mo- thank you for your beautiful comment. I believe your are right.
Medusa-thank you so much. I believe I do this to provoke thoughts and make connections. It is wonderful to see that it has served it's purpose.

My God, this made me cry...it's exactly how I'm feeling right now.  It really sucks to know that someone else is going through the same pain that I am.  I'm sorry.
