                  The thin line...
          
Sometimes we wonder how close ones can hurt us? what we forget is that if they weren’t close...it wouldn’t hurt
Strangers can do damage...they can’t cause pain or hurt...

Sometimes we walk a thin line between love and hate...Between laughter and tears...happiness and sorrow...Success and failure...humility and pride...
The thin line calls for courage and a lot of strength...
It‘s not easy...but we all do it...think carefully...and you’ll see the most important times of our lives we are walking the thin line...

Some “people” may touch us hearts...some “one” may touch our souls...but it takes an angel to touch our spirits...they don’t come with a halo on their heads for us to look out for...we just have to feel...them around...on higher grounds...

There’s a difference between waiting and hoping...
When you hope you go on...when you wait your time is standing still
It’s a choice you make...but remember this...
The finer things are all too few...but they shine...
All the way through...so keep your eyes closed if you must but keep your heart open...


< !signature-->

 you don't have to understand completely..to love completely...
remember even the darkest night has a morning to meet...you'll understand someday...
Avanti Rao

What you say in this poem is so true. only those that are close to us can really hurt us..and what strangers do can only help us learn and grow...yes it is true, life is a thin line we walk everyday and hope is what keeps us walking.
Great Job!

take care,
