Poem
STRANGERS CARE During the moments that I’m feeling down On the days that I struggle, or think life’s unfair A bigger voice of wisdom speaks up and reminds me That if it wasn't for strangers, I would not be here When pain from my body reaches its peak When I question in confusion, who will be there When I think, I am alone, I’ll just look out my window And I know if I reach out, a stranger will care When I think that I carry the weight of the world When I’m feeling lost, or I’m feeling stuck I will think back and remember, all that I’ve accomplished And how a stranger reached out, just to wish me luck This world filled with beautiful strangers To remind me when I start to feel alone I’ll recall the expression of warmth in their eyes As many beautiful strangers welcomed me into their home… (C) Giggles the Poet 1987 i have been on my own since I was five, and despite being with abusive foster homes, God was still with me....all I've known is strangers all my life, and strangers are my family. I hope that in my next life, I might know a family environment and know what its like to live without being harmed, maimed or forgotten... My life is mine now, and I choose what I want to do, or who I want in it. I see so many people walking through life like robots, not knowing who they are, following the herd, following the rules, and they die, not knowing who they are or not having done what they only dreamed.... I'm making my dreams come true....and my mission is to mend the minds of God's angels. So, they can stop living through generational beliefs and start creating their own.... We have a beautiful mind.....we are not our mind....and so many have limiting beliefs they are unaware of that stops them from living....speaking up and being the autonomous person God put on this planet... You came into this world alone, you'll go out the same...the in-between is yours.....and you can be and do anything you want..... It begins from within.....the past has no bearing on who we are, or become....nor do we turn out like our family, unless we choose that path FEAR FOCUS EMPOWERMENT AND RESILIENCE that is what we are ::)
