No matter what your troubles are
how much distance, or how far,
know this in your heart
you are, and always will be
the brightest of shining stars;
                            
                


and I will always be here
for with your troubles to share
to lend a comforting hand
so that you will know I care...

YOU are not alone.


(for a very special gal, and anyone else who
might need to remember their stars burn brightly..)


It's better than I could have planned..
it's made me who I am...
{Trace Adkins}

You are all so welcome. I have a post card up at work that I like to read often and it says...

"To be a star, you must shine your own light
follow your own path, and don't worry about
the darkness, for that is when stars shine brightest. "

You all SHINE!  Thank you.
