Sometimes we lose our line of sight,

Our vision of the goal,

And in these times, we often feel,

We’ve lost our greater whole.

 

And while it’s dark, we cannot see,

The path before our eyes,

And so we trip, and then we fall,

And not with much surprise.

 

And it can seem, so very bleak,

Being lost within the night,

That we lose belief, in what is true,

The path, towards the light.

 

Because change is part of life, you know,

And everything happens for a reason,

And maybe we’re in the cold right now,

But that is just the season.

 

So when we feel, that brief despair,

Whenever we look back,

We have to turn our eyes ahead,

And get ourselves on track.

 

Because there’s a Plan, that guides our steps,

In many subtle ways,

And life will find a way again,

And with it, spirits raise…

 

So take heart, my friend, in every day,

And hope in all you do,

For spring will come, and summer days,

And joy will come… to you.

 

For the strength it takes to achieve our potential…

Spend no time on yesterday,

That’s all within the past,

Look instead, to where you’re going,

And make those days all last.

 

Be present for, the smallest things,

The time within your day,

Enjoy the life, in every breath,

Don’t give them all away.

 

Find the light, the coming dawn,

A day begun anew…

Feel the peace, that rests inside,

The journey, that is you.

 

For in hope, we find, a greater strength,

The power of what can be,

The ability to, define ourselves,

To set our spirits free.

 

Because the hope that rests, in simple things,

Like the beauty of a smile,

Can give us all the strength it takes,

To journey for many miles.

 

And when we let ourselves be free,

Our souls lighter than a feather,

We’ll fly away, to a better place,

The joy of our forever…

 

For the possibilities that come with each day to redefine our tomorrows…
