I THANK THE LORD ABOVE
I thank the Lord above
For sending you to me to love
He had a hand in how we feel
He knew our love would be real
He opened our minds and our hearts
He made us promise that never we will part
I thank the Lord above For you, my one true love So tender, so true, so
caring, so sweet
You really did sweep me off my feet
Stole my heart, stole my soul
Need you now to become whole
I thank the Lord above
Never before did I love
He will challenge us, give us our test
But He knows that we fit together the best
We will live and love in perfect harmony
For our love is truly meant to be
I thank the Lord above
For giving you to me to love

from deep within your heart,
you hold on in the hopes that your dreams will come alive,
that you won't come up short.
First you must imagine your goals,
chart them out - prepare to set sail.
Examine deeply into your inner soul
without the use of a measuring scale.
Wishes and dreams do come true.
They won't appear all at once,
but they will come.
Just try to be patient and have confidence.
All we all want is to be happy and free...
It is not easy for everyone,
we just hope we can pay the fee.
We don't want our dreams undone.
Our wishes and dreams are for simple things -
For some, the simple things come quite naturally.
We are not asking for the golden ring,
we simply want to live happily.
I believe in wishes and dreams -
If one works at making them come true,
all will fall into place it seems,
and do what we can do!
I pray each night that my prayers will be answered,
I ask God for devine intervention.
Never asking for a quick fix or cure,
just to have some of our wishes and dreams to make a connection!

God knew that everyone needs
Companionship and cheer...
He knew that people need someone
Whose thoughts are always near.
He knew they needed someone kind
to lend a helping hand...
Someone to gladly take the time
To care and understand...
That's why God gave us friends
God knew that we all need someone
To share each happy day...
To be a source of courage
When troubles come our way...
Someone to be true to us
Whether near or far apart...
Someone whose love we'll always hold
And treasure in our hearts...
That's why God gave us friends.

'THE STARFISH'
Once upon a time there was a wise man who used to go to
the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the
beach before he began his work.
One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked
down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer.
He smiled to himself to think of someone who would dance
to the day. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the
young man wasn't dancing, but instead he was reaching
down to the shore, picking up something and very gently
throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer he called out,
"Good morning! What are you doing?"
The young man paused, looked up and replied,
"Throwing starfish in the ocean."
"I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?"
"The sun is up, and the tide is going out. And if I don't
throw them in they'll die."
"But, young man, don't you realize that there are miles and
miles of beach, and starfish all along it. You can't possibly
make a difference!"
The young man listened politely. Then bent down, picked
another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking
waves and said,
"It made a difference for that one."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can become aware of that gift, we gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.
We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our stars wisely and well, the world will be blessed.

'Just A Tiny Little Minute'
Just a tiny little minute, only sixty seconds in it,
forced upon me, can't refuse it, didn't seek it,
didn't choose it, but it's up to me to use it,
give account if I abuse it. Just a tiny little minute,
but eternity is in it.
