Sadness and sorrow will invade my path...
Greater still...
Opportunities taken...
From life's tragedies...
Begin anew.
A fresh start each day, given...
Precious are the memories held
From a life well-lived...
Examples of strength, grace, and character.
Precious are the moments...
Woven in time...
filled with flavor and excitement...
Life is not boring...
It's what we make of it...
Each season...
Filled with opportunities...
Sadness and sorrow give birth to joy and fellowship...
Happy is the heart that finds home!
Living Life,
Andrea
