~*~ Cry not, my precious little one, these pains in life shall pass. You are made of will and might, and not of splintered glass. Prevailing winds have blown you, from your cozy shelf, but soon you'll be back soaring, and be your sunny self. The knocks in life can be so hard, and knock the wind from you, but faith and determination, will surely see you through. So, get back up, shake off the dust, now go and seize the day. Never doubt your inner strength, to handle come what may. ~*~ |

So, get back up, shake off the dust, now go and seize the day. Never doubt your inner strength, to handle come what may. Linda, I love this. My deceased husband Mother use to have a saying she said quite often...."If a person falls down in a mud puddle, they don't have to stay down in it and wallow around". I guess that is a Southern way of saying to "get back up and shake the dust off". You think? I'm keeping this, Linda, if you don't mind....to read over again and again. Heart hugs, Lady Ethel |

"Get up and go on..." was as plain as my folks could make it. No salt, pepper or sugar...just "get up and go on." HUGS.... |

Earth Angel...A most important write. You so beautifully capture the process of faith. We are all being molded in to that fine vessel, being refined in the fire and tested that we may be a thing of true beauty in the Lord's eyes. Wonderful poem!!! ***Ivy Rose |
