Only I

Contributed by NoSaint on Monday, 7th August 2006 @ 09:32:56 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



Only I can save myself
Only I can make a change
Only I can bring myself hope
Only I my life rearrange

Others can show me the way
Others a model may be
Others may lend a helping hand
But only I can truly change me

Only I will walk this walk
Only I will fight the battles long
Only I can bring up my light
Only I have to be strong

Others light may shine on me
Or others darkness shed
But only I can choose the path
Only I can make my own bed

Only I can decide the person I will be
Only I can take a chance
Only I can make life full
Only I can choose to sing, laugh and dance

Others choose to hurt
Or others choose to please
Only I can pick how I react
Only I can fight or appease

Only I plan my route
Only I am in charge
It is my life my journey
Only I can minimize or enlarge

Shari your strength and growth shines through this write. Your incredible! Im proud of you my friend. This is so empowering to me it gave me the added boost I needed to finish out the day. Such a delightful flowing read full of sage wisdom my friend. This is something we have talked about often. How did I get so lucky to have a friend like you!! I cant wait till we can see eachother again. My only regret is we live so far apart. But my friend your support and wisdom stays with me each day in my heart and you have helped me a great deal through all this drama!!!!!!!!! I love you sis I do I do.Im blessed to have you in my life and so enjoy our connection and long talks. We can do it!!!!!!!

Michelle

Huge hugs
