1/25/09

Some believe everything happens for a reason
Others say you get what you can handle
I think we are each born free and able
to bring both joy and pain into this world.

When sorrow brought me to my knees,
and all of life's certainties became questions, I prayed:
God, give me the strength to stand
and countless hands lifted me up.

The tears dry
and the wound heals
Yet answers to many questions
stay locked in silent hearts.

Faith allows us to hope,
hope guides us to love,
and love brings us boundless joy.
A four stop journey that can last a lifetime.

Never forget who you are.
and always hold tight to the blessings which remain.
Despite an indescribable loss, I found my way.
I stand unbroken.
