The Heart Can Do Anything, So Follow Where It Leads...

Life can't be counted in candlesor measured in number of years,it's counted in small joysand good times and laugh lines, as well as in heartaches and tears.Life can't be counted in candlesbut in things done with effort and pridewith dreams followed boldlyand hopes kept alive...in times when we've failed..but tried.Life can't be counted in candlesor measured in years that have flown...it's ocutned in kindnesses, close friends, and loved onesand in all the sweet blessings we've known.*******************************************You're SpecialIsn't it funny how some special people don't realize they're special at all?They're thoughtfulwithout even thinking about it,They're always right therewhen you callThey share, not expecting a thing in return,Yet always seem richer for giving---Isn't it lovelyhow those special people can teach us so much about living! ****************************************************Sometimes it's not about the big stuffthe dramatic headlinesand major happeningsthat scream for our attentionSometimes it's about the love between two peoplethe little sacrifices they makeand the simple ways they find to show each other and the worldthat this what mattersmore than anything. *********************************************************The Special People in our LivesThe things special people just naturally doMake all our lives brighter and happier, too...It might be the warmth of a welcoming smile,Or the time someone takesJust to visit awhile.It might be a hugor a heart-to-heart talkA companion who's willingto go for a walk,It might be a favor,a kind helping handa listening ear,the words "I Understand"They're all little things,but we know beyond doubtEach one's at the heartOf what life's all about. **********************************************************
