  • Inspirational Poem I found

    I wanted to share a poem I came across that I found to be inspirational:

    A poem by Veronica A. Shoffstall:

    Comes the dawn
    After a while you learn the subtle difference
    Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,
    And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning
    And company doesn't mean security,
    And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
    And presents aren't promises,
    And you begin to accept your defeats
    With your head up and your eyes open
    With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,
    And you learn to build all your roads on today
    Because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans.
    And futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
    After a while you learn
    That even sunshine burns if you get too much.
    So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul,
    Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
    And you learn that you really can endure....
    That you really are strong.
    And you really do have worth.
    And you learn and learn....
    With every goodbye you learn.
