Sometimes I sit alone and cry.
Inside I’m sad and ask myself why?
Why does it seem I really don’t care,
There's no one to love; nothing to share?
I have experienced life, with its highs and lows;
Mistakes I made many; but they helped me grow.
Spiritually and emotionally this I have learned,
Friendship and Trust are two gifts that we earn. Fore at the end of your road, I hope you will see,
People are not perfect; Not You - Not Me!
Boy, is that the truth. If people realized this, they wouldn't expect their relationships to be fairy tales of perfection and would just love. Great message.
You are so right, through mistakes we learn, grow and hopefully become better. I have fallen countless times, but it never stopped me from getting back up. No one has the right to judge another. Just be who you are and be proud....
Mickey,
Amen. No one is perfect and if you come across anyone who thinks they are, you should run the other way for they obviously have major ego issues. If others expect us to be something we're not, then they're not friends and don't, honestly, have our best interests at heart. My parents preached that to me, growing up, and it's a lesson that all children should learn.
Thanks,
Jill
