Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers You learn that you really can endure That you really are strong And you really do have worth And you learn and learn With every good-bye, you learn.

The man worthwhile is one who will smile when everything goes dead wrong. And the smile that is worth the praises of earth, Is the smile that shines through tears.

When my life has reached it's very end, And I take that final breath; I want to know I've left behind, Some "good" before my death. I hope that in my final hour, In all honesty I can say: That somewhere in my lifetime, I have brightened someone's day.

That maybe I have brought a smile To someone else's face, And made one moment a little sweeter While they dwelled here in this place. Lord, please be my reminder And whisper softly in my ear ... To be a "giver," not a "taker," In the years I have left here.

Give to me the strength I need, Open up my mind and my soul That I might show sincere compassion, And love to others before I go. For if not a heart be touched by me, And not a smile was left behind ... Then the life that I am blessed with, Will have been a waste of time.

With all my heart, I truly hope To leave something here on earth ... That touched another, made them smile And gave to my life..... worth. ~Author Unknown~

I'm not claiming to be perfect, my flaws are too visible but God believes I'm worth it.

You Are Worth It!
