I have had this poem for years and always found it inspiring. It means more to me now than ever. I hope you all like it.
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security,
And you begin to understand that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head held high and your eyes open
With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,
You learn to build your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in mid flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. So you plant your own garden and you decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers
And you learn that you really can endure, that you really are strong and you really do have worth
And you learn and learn...and you learn
With every goodbye you learn.
