If you can look at the sunset and smile
then you still have hope
If you can find beauty in the colors of a small flower
then you still have hope
If you can find pleasure in the movement of a butterfly
then you still have hope

If the smile of a child can still warm your heart
then you still have hope
If you can see the good in other people
then you still have hope

If the rain breaking on a roof top can still lull you to sleep
then you still have hope
If the sight of a rainbow still makes you stop and stare in wonder
then you still have hope
If the soft fur of a favored pet still feels pleasant under your fingertips then you still have hope.

If you meet new people with a trace of excitement and optimism
then you still have hope
If you give people the benefit of a doubt
then you still have hope
If you still offer your hand in friendship to others that have touched your life then you still have hope

If you receiving an unexpected message still brings a pleasant surprise then you still have hope
If the suffering of others still fills you with pain and frustration
then you still have hope
If you refuse to let a friendship die
or accept that it must end
then you still have hope

If you look forward to a time or place of quiet and reflection
then you still have hope
If you can look to the past and smile
then you still have hope

If, when faced with the bad
when told everything is futile
you can still look up and end the conversation with the phrase..."yeah...BUT.," then you still have hope

Hope is such a marvelous thing
It bends, it twists, it sometimes hides, but rarely does it break
It sustains us when nothing else can
It gives us reason to continue and courage to move ahead
when we tell ourselves we'd rather give in

Hope puts a smile on our face
when the heart cannot manage
Hope puts our feet on the path when our eyes cannot see it
Hope moves us to act
when our souls are confused of the direction

Hope is a wonderful thing, something to be cherished and nurtured, and something that will refresh us in return
And it can be found in each of us
and it can bring light into the darkest of places

Never lose hope !

Outstanding persons say...

You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don't trust enough.

A loving heart will always know the feelings words can't always show.

The only promises that I know to be true are the promises made from the heart.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

Thinking: The talking of the soul with itself.

Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows.

A person is grown up not when they can take care of themselves, but when they can take care of others.

The happiest people are those who are too busy to wonder whether they are or not.

If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, keep moving.

Tomorrow Without Me ......

TO MY DEAREST FRIEND

When tomorrow starts without me,
When I'm not there to see.
Should the sun rise and find your eyes,
All filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say,
I know how much you care for me,
As much as I care for you.

When tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand.
That an angel came and called my name,
Said my place was ready in Heaven
That I'd have to leave behind,
ALL those I dearly love.

As I turned to walk away a little tear fell,
I had so much to live for, so much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I am leaving you.
Thinking of all the love and care we shared, all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, even for a while,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you, maybe see you smile.
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.

Then I walked through Heaven's gates,
God looked down and smiled at me,
He said, "This is eternity,
All I've promised you.
Today your life on Earth is past,
Here it starts anew.
I promise you no tomorrows,
Today will always last,
Since each day is the same day.
You have been so faithful,
Trusting and true.
Though there were times you did somethings,
You knew you shouldn't do.
You have been forgiven.
Now at last you're free,
So won't you take my hand share my life with me?"

When tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your Heart!

^_^lift your spirits high
