Be the Difference

HOW CAN PEOPLE MAKE YOU FEEL THIS WAY? HOW ARE THEY CAPABLE OF TAKING YOUR BREATH IN LIFE? HOW CAN YOU HURT WITH NO AFFLICTION? HOW CAN SOMEONE STAND FOR SOME MUCH YET BE SO EMPTY? HOW CAN SOMEONE HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD AND BE SO HAPPY? IT'S ALL QUITE POSSIBLY VERY SIMPLE??? ACKNOWLEDGE THE PURPOSE OF ALL THE SMALL THINGS. SUNSHINE..RAIN..WIND..LAUGHTER. .TEARS..LOVE.. HONESTY..HUMILITY..COMPASSION. .A HELPING HAND OR A KIND WORD HOPE..BELIEF..FAITH..BREATH..LIFE!! ! SO RATIFY YOUR STRUGGLES...YOUR FIGHT... THEN YOU WILL DEVELOP AND ENHANCE YOUR MORALS AND YOUR VALUES. STAND FOR SOMETHING AND BE PROUD AND STRONG. CARRY THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD AND BE HONORED AND ENERGIZED. HAVE CONVICTION IN ALL YOU SAY AND DO AND THEN YOU ALONE COULD BREATHE LIFE INTO SOMEONE WHOSE SOUL IS ON THE VERGE OF LOSING ITSELF!

A right nice kick in the you-know-what!! Valerie, I love you and what you've done here, now you're shifting gears here and telling the reader to make life matter, go live it, and be the difference in someone elses life! Good Job here, though you caught me off guard, not sure where we're going next!!! MC
