"Have yourself a Merry 'lil
Christmas" Have yourself a merry little
Christmas, Let your heart be light.
From now on, our troubles will be out
of sight. Have yourself a merry little
Christmas, Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on, our troubles will be miles away.

allow. Hang a shining star upon the highest bough. And

miracle called Friendship, That
dwells in the heart. You don't know how it
happens. Or when it gets it's
start. But you know the special lift it always
brings. You realize that
Friendship..... Is God's most precious gift! "
Desiderata" Go placidly
amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace
there may be in silence. As
far as possible without surrender be on good terms
with all people. Speak
your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to all even to
the dull and
ignorant ; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive
people, they
are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself to others you
will
become vain and bitter; there will always be greater and lesser persons
than
yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested
in
your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the
changing
fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the
world is
full of trickery. But let not this blind you to the virtue there is;
many
persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be
yourself especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love;
in
the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the
grass. Take
kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the
things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden
misfortune. But do not
distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born
of fatigue and
loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline be gentle with
yourself. You are a
child of the universe, no less than the trees and the
stars; you have the right
to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is
unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with
God, whatever you conceive
Him to be. And whatever your labors and
aspirations, in the noisy confusion of
life keep peace with your soul. With
all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
"Footprints" One night a man had a
dream. He dreamed he was walking along the
beach with the Lord. Across the sky
flashed scenes from his life. For each
scene he noticed two sets of footprints
in the sand, one belonging to him,
and the other belonging to the Lord. When the
last scene of his life flashed
before him, he looked back at the footprints in
the sand. He noticed that
many times along the path of his life there was only
one set of footprints.
He noticed that it happened at the very lowest and
saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord
about it. Lord, you said
that once I decided to follow You, You'd walk with me
all the way. But I have
noticed that during the most troublesome times in my
life, there is only one
set of footprints. I don't understand why, when I needed
you most, you would
leave me. The Lord replied "My son. My precious child,
I love you and
would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see
only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

can't be bought or
sold. But to have an understanding, it's worth more than
diamonds or gold".
"Happy Birthday Baby" I would like this
message to be a lasting reminder of
how special you are to me... A birthday is a
day of happiness, a day for
sharing feelings, and a time for celebrating a very
important person. And
YOUR birthday is an especially important day... because
it's a time to wish
you a wonderful year ahead. And it's a time to wish you a
treasure of
happiness from the year gone by. And it's a time to give you a
lasting
reminder that you are very special to me... and you always will be.
"Heaven"
Everyday, As sure as the rising of the sun, I know that you,
Are always
near to my heart, Together we are "One". A gentle smile
upon my face, As I
think of when we met. A nicer memory, Would be impossible to
get. Until the
next time, When we get together, Remember what we have: The smile
that lasts
forever. A slice of heaven in my heart. "Ideals" "
Ideals are like stars,
You will not succeed in touching them with your hands.
But like the
seafaring men on the desert of waters, You choose them as your
guides, And
following them you will reach your destiny." "Enough of an
Artist" " I am
enough of an artist To draw freely upon my imagination.
Imagination is
more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination
encircles
the world." --- Albert Einstein --- "Life's Richest
Treasure" I hold in
my hands a box of gold, With a secret inside, that no
one else knows. The box
is priceless, But its easy to see, The treasure inside
Is far more
precious to me. Today I share This treasure with thee, It is the
treasure of
friendship, You've given to me. "It's allright" "It's
all right"...Dry your
eyes and cry no more. Your dreams await on nearing
shores. A hand extends
from someone near, To cast away your doubts and fears.
It's time to start
a life anew, With changes for the both of us. Cling not to
the things you've
had, Reminders of a time so sad. So rise about the mire and
silt, and free
yourself of fear and guilt. Question not the things unknown, Just
please
accept the love you're shown. Trust in things you can not see, and
maybe
you'll believe in me. So now before you here I stand. Just make a wish
and take
my hand. "Life's true harvest" " The true harvest of my
daily
life is somewhat as intangible, and indescribable as the tints of
morning or
evening. It is a little star-dust caught, A segment of the rainbow
which I have
clutched." --------Henry David Thoreau-------- "Lost in
Love"
Lost In Love..(With You).... At times it seems like a fantasy, the
love we
share, you and me. I lay awake at night thinking of you, and where
our love will
bring us to. I strongly know and believe in my heart, that no
matter what, we
will never be apart. Our love grows stronger with every day,
and even after we
fight, it never fades away. It's so rare and special, the
bond that keeps us
bound, the love that we have found. With every day our
love is new, and this is
my way of saying I Love You. "M" is for Mother" M
..... is for
mother, so thoughtful, kind, and true.. O ..... is for other,
none other is like
you... T ..... stands for thanks a million... H ..... for
hugs and hush-hush
lullabys, that calmed me down to sleep... E ..... is for
everything you
sacrificed for me... R ..... reminds me mother dear, that
you're the greatest!

are!
