There is that rare occasion
when someone comes into your life
that you make such a connection with,
you know they were meant
to be near you.
Listen with all your heart.
Perhaps it is in the way
they make you smile or laugh.
Perhaps it is in the way
they support your dreams
and encourage you to move forward.
Perhaps it is in the way
they hold you when you hurt
or lift you up
when you feel like falling down.
These people are few and far between.
They may be in your life
for a day....
for a year....
or perhaps a lifetime.
Regardless of how long,
they touch your life forever.
No matter how far apart you are
or how much time passes,
they live within you.
They are a forever in your life.
Your heart holds onto them.
Listen with all your heart.
They whisper in your thoughts and
help you hold on
to all of your dreams.
They were sent by the heavens above
to find you,
help you grow and
become the person God intended.
They are the missing pieces of yourself.
Hold them tenderly....
hold them dear.
They are the rare jewels in your life....
to be cherished forever.
Listen with all your heart.
