The walk of life is hard,
And sometimes we skip
And sometimes we dance
And sometimes we stumble
And sometimes we fall.

People always tell us
That it could be worse
Or it could be harder,
But honestly,
Sometimes you just don't care.

And sometimes it seems deeper
When you think of how sadness
Makes you appreciate happiness.

But sometimes life is hard,
And you just wonder
How it could ever be happy again.

And sometimes you're happy,
But you're scared,
Because it could be taken
Away.

But life is tears,
And sighs,
And songs,
And laughter.

Life is sadness,
And sorrow,
And joy,
And happiness.

Because a baby's first footsteps
Are always followed
By a baby's first fall.

Flowers only come
After rain clouds,
And bright light,
And breaking through a shell.

Life is sweeter
After storms,
And bright times,
And breaking through your shell.
I sometimes catch myself glancing at someone.
Then turn around, but I can't stop myself from staring back at them again.
The way people do something, and look so beautiful, without even knowing.
When they draw, when they do their homework, when they're watching TV, some people just always catch my eyes, and I can't help but stare at them. It makes me smile, and I kind of fall in love with the way people do stuff.

Today is a new day so rejoice in Christ faithfulness.
Today is a new day with hopes of new beginnings.
Today is a new day for some it is a fresh start for them.
Today is a new day with new hopes, and new purpose.
So rejoice unto the Good Lord our Precious God and King.
Let us come together so that we may worship him always.
For he is the alpha and omega, beginning and the end.

The hardest thing I've ever
had to remember to do
I believe in the positive over the negative.
I pray for the positive over the negative.
What bad?
What bad shall anyone seek?

Keep all negative vibes far away from me.
All they do is challenge the mind and torture the soul.
If sinking down in quicksand your mind is on surviving.
And not dying.
Unless you just don't believe.

If faced with hatred.
Notice , how love scares those when faced with it?

I believe in the positive.
And no one, can change this part of me.
Dream of her.
And then go get her.
Make her your determination.
Make her your love.

There's nothing wrong with the chase.
If you can confirm you''ll be in first place.

Dream of him, ladies.
Go out and get him.
Make up your mind.
You're determine to make him your man.

Don't be a home wrecker.
That's a tag no one need connected to their name.
Because  you can never escape the pain.

Physically speaking, we know what we like?
We know exactly, what they look like?
The problem is?
We might settle upon another person.
Then we'll be dreaming of them.
Sitting here alone
Chilled to the bone
I think of only sad things.

But the music in the street
Makes me bounce to the beat
Happiness tugging at my strings.

I begin to smile,
The first time in a while.
and that bird in my heart again sings.

I may be alone,
But at least I am home
And that bird can now stretch her wings.
