"INSPIRATION"



A Very Special Place

Somewhere between time and space
You will discover that very special place
A magical kingdom not hard to find
Where the residents are all sweet and kind
So filled with love for all mankind
For that somewhere between time and space
Lies not in heaven but here on earth

For this inner space is located right here
In a very familiar neighborhood
Called our heart, our mind and our soul
Where all residents give of their gift of love
And is their one and only goal

Life is like a flower
Just let it bloom
Dancing in the wind and sunshine
It's joyfully full
But when the petals begin to fall,
Joy goes away
And is replaced with faith
That one day it may rain

I felt that this poem was very touching. It helped me get through the hard times and know that I just have to have faith.

"If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it round. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it. I don't embrace trouble; that's as bad as treating it as an enemy. But I do say meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it and had better be on speaking terms with it."
Oliver Wendell Holmes
