I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend

He referred to the dates on her tombstone
From the beginning…to the end.

As you travel through life
there are always those times
when decisions just have to be made
when the choices are hard,
and solutions seem scarce
and the rain seems
to soak your parade!

Hold on to Faith;
it is the source of believing that all things are possible.
It is the fiber and strength of a confident soul.

When you are lonely
I wish you love.

When you are down
I wish you joy.

Is it any wonder
That lovers’ hearts grow dim,
When they do not hold in honor,
The love that’s found within?

Pray, don’t find fault with the man that limps
Or stumbles along the road.
Unless you have worn the shoes he wears
Or struggled beneath his load.

Do not think of what you do not have;
Instead, appreciate what you have and can still have.
Do not think of things lost;
Instead, value what you still have and may yet find.

If the sky above seems cloudy,
And you’re left out in the rain,
If you’re searching for a rainbow,
But the colors bring you pain…

Sometimes I feel very lonely,
When I look at the world around me,
A guy passes by with a girl by his side,
And there is no one beside me.

If I could catch a rainbow, I would do it, just for you,
And, share with you, its beauty, on the days you’re feeling blue.
