Well,
I hope to make this a philoshophical page.
If
you have any, poems- or just thoughts- on what the world needs to
make it a better place, just e-mail me, and I'll add it on here. Everyone's
ideas are welcome, though I would like them to be positive thoughts not
a "Let's blow it up and start over again" idea.
Send any , send all ~ would
love to hear from you
.
.
People
pass in and out of our
lives
so quickly.too quickly,
sometimes.
I have discovered,
If
you take the time to listen,
to
really liste
You
can learn so much.
Listen
to the man sitting on the bench.
He
may have some very sage advice.
Listen
to your partner and they
will
remain a friend, for life.
Listen
to your children as you
sit
and watch them grow.
For
if you don't listen, when they're
children,
you lose them as people
that
you will never know.
Listen
to the music, it is
the
language of the world.
It
will lighten your heart
and
give you strength as
your
place in the world unfolds.
Listen
for the cries of pain,
and
try to ease the sound.
Listen
for the yells of laughter,
and
make your heart swell.
Listen
to the soul within,
when
dealing in a world without.
For
if more people, listened ~~ really listened...
The
troubles in the world...we would live without.

When You Thought I Wasn't
Looking...
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator,
and I wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you feed a stray cat,
and I thought it was good to be kind to animals.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you make my favourite cake just for me,
and I knew that little things are special things.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I heard you say a prayer,
and I believed there is a God I could always
talk to.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I felt you kiss me good night,
and I felt loved.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw tears come from your eyes,
and I learned that sometimes things hurt,
but it's all right
to cry.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw that you cared
and I wanted to be everything
that I could be.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked...
and wanted to say thanks for all the things
I saw
when you thought I wasn't looking.

TODAY
Today's the day I'll make my world shine brighter.
I'll keep a friendly smile upon my face.
I'll hug the ones I love a little tigher.
My home will be a warmer, kinder place.
Today I'll work for peace and understanding,
And in whatever job I have to do
I'll try to be more patient, less demanding
;
And listen well to other points of view..
Today I want to be alot more giving
And spend less evergy on long-past griefs.
Today I plan to put more joy in living,
By practicing, not preaching, my beliefs...
Today I'll make somebody's burden lighter.
I'll raise a lamp of hope for all to see.
Today's the day I'll make my world
Shine brighter by being
the best me that I can be
.
