Standing Alone

We was born alone
but with our loving parents arms streched out to embrace us
as we grew  we learnt to lift our head alone
with someone loving there so we could see them
Crawling came next and we got up on our knees alone
with the help of a loved one there to call out to us
Last but not least we learned to stand alone then we made our first step
All the things we learnt as a child was made for to be able to do  things alone when we are adults.
So now we can stand alone
