Thumbs up "After a While"

I just wanted to share this poem with everyone entitled "After a While"

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning

And company doesn't mean security

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts

And presents aren't promises

And you begin to accept your defeats, with your head up and your eyes open

With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child

Learn to build all your roads today, because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in midflight

After a while, you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much

So plant your own gardens and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers

And learn that you really can endure....

That you are really strong

And you really do have worth

And you learn and learn....with every goodbye, you learn.

I ran across this poem and decided to post. You never know what is going on in another person's life. Maybe someone needed to read this...who knows.

"If I can help somebody as I pass along then my living will not be in vain."

Stay Sisterly
