Why are you so sad?
I wish I could make it right.
If I could hold you in my arms
I am sure you would feel happy and bright.
�
Why are you so unhappy?
I wish there was something I could do.
I would offer you the world,
if I thought you would feel less blue.
�
Why are you so unsettled?
Is it something on your mind?
Or is it emotional pain of
something You have not left behind?
�
Is it the future that you fear
Uncertain of what it may hold.
With all its traps and pitfalls
it can seem so callous and cold.
�
Can it be loneliness that troubles you?
With no one with whom you can share
Your innermost thoughts and feelings
and trusting that the person will truly care?
�
Sadness, loneliness and pain are
troubling at the best.
Change requires a new attitude.
Applying it is truly the test.
�
Remember that you are worthy of
the better things in life.
Peace of mind and self respect
Are really not that hard to find.
�
Courage to make the right decisions
are certainly not out of sight.
To follow your inner instinct
usually means you are right.
�
If you fall short of your desired goal;
do not be too distressed!
For we all have human shortcomings
and the best we can have is progress.
�
Remember that you are beautiful,
witty, intelligent and kind.
You have much to offer this world
in soul, body and mind.
�
You have a purpose on this earth
although it may not be clear.
By having faith and trust it will be disclosed
with the passing of every year.
�
You will never have to feel alone.
For I will always be near.
Just think of me when you are distressed.
I know that things will become clear.
�
A friend forever is a treasure indeed
And that is what I offer to You.
In good times and bad we can share together
whatever may come out of the blue.
�
You can always feel safe to share with me
Your innermost thoughts and dreams.
My promise to you is that I will not judge
and I will support You by any means.
�
You have touched my heart and I don't know why.
Fate has mysterious ways.
It will challenge us to do our best
with the passing of every day.
�
To be happy or sad is a choice that we make and
it defiantly comes from within.
Living everyday to its fullest
is a wonderful place to begin.
