Living in Love

Someday's we're up!

Someday's we need a helping hand from a friend,

or a smile from a passer-by,

or a special "Thank You"

because life can do that to us.

It can knock the breath right out of us so that we step back.

We stop, look, listen and want to just curl up in a ball,

and that's okay. It's life!

The best part of this time

is when we have the love from a friend to help us get back up.

The best part of this time is when we know that our lives

are not yet over just because someone left us.

The best part of this time is... finding a reason to get up again!

The best part of this time is... not waiting for everything to be

perfect to take that chance.
