| Always Have A Dream Forget about the days when it's been cloudy, but don't forget your hours in the sun. Forget about the times you've been defeated, but don't forget the victories you've won. Forget about the mistakes that you can't change now, but don't forget the lessons. Forget about the misfortunes you've encountered, but don't forget the times your luck has turned. Forget about the days when you've been lonely, but don't forget the friendly smiles you've seen. Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right, but don't forget to always have a dream.

| Slow Dance Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round, or listened to rain slapping the ground? Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight, or gazed at the sun into the fading night? You'd better slow down, don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last. Do you run through each day on the fly, when you ask "How are"? Do you hear the reply? When the day is done, do you lie in your bed, with the next hundred chores running through your head? You'd better slow down, don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last. Ever told your child, we'll do it tomorrow, and in your haste, not seen his sorrow? Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die, 'cause you never had time to call and say "hi". You'd better slow down, don't dance so fast, time is short, the music won't last. When you run so fast to get somewhere, you miss half the fun of getting there. When you worry and hurry through your day, it is like an unopened gift ... thrown away. Life is not a race, so take it slower, hear the music before the song is over. Alton L. Cheek |
| At Days End
Is anybody happier because you passed his way? Does anyone remember that you spoke to him today? The day is almost over, and its toiling time is through; Is there anyone with a kindly word of you? Can you say tonight, in parting with the day that's slipping fast, That you helped a single brother of the many that you passed? Is a single heart rejoicing over what you did or said; Does the man whose hopes were fading, now with courage look ahead? Did you waste the day, or lose it? Was it well or sorely spent? Did you leave a trail of kindness, or a scar of discontent? As you close your eyes in slumber, do you think God will say, "You have earned one more tomorrow by the work you did today"?

| Dreams Don't ever stop dreaming your dreams they're a very essential part of you. Do whatever you can to make them a reality by the course you take. The plans you make and all the things you do. Don't dwell on past mistakes leave yesterday behind you. Along with any of its problems, worries and doubts. Do realize you can't change the past, but just ahead is the future And you can do something about that. Don't try to accomplish everything at once life can be difficult enough. Without adding frustration to the list. Do travel one step at a time. And reach for one goal at a time. That's the way to find out what real accomplishment is. Don't be afraid to do the impossible. Even if others don't think you'll succeed. Do remember that history is filled with incredible accomplishments. Of those who were foolish enough to believe. Don't forget that there are so many things that are wonderful Rare and unique about you. And ... Do remember that if you can search within and find a smile That smile will always be a reflection of the way people feel About you. Author Unknown |
