Give thanks to the LORD;
for He is good;
His love endures forever.
Psalm 107:1
I've Learned
I've learned ...
that the great challenge of life
is to decide what's
important
and to disregard everything else.
I've learned ...
that you can't be a hero
without taking chances.
I've learned ...
that life challenges us with the fact
that everything can be done
better
I've learned ...
that a strong code of ethics
is as reliable as a compass
I've learned ...
that nothing of value
comes without effort
I've learned ...
that the ache of unfulfilled
dreams is the worst pain of
all
I've learned ...
that no matter how thin you slice it,
there are always two sides
I've learned ...
that regardless of color or
age,
we all need about the same amount of
love
I've learned ...
that silent company is often more healing
than words of advice
I've learned ...
that if you pursue happiness,
it will elude you
But if you focus on your family,
the needs of others,
your work, meeting new
people,
and doing the very best you
can,
Happiness will find you
A Love Letter To You
How do I tell you "I love
you"?
How do I show you I
care?
How do I say all you mean to
me?
How can mere words say it
all?
How can I show you my
feelings?
What can I do that will
tell?
How do I say all you mean to
me?
How can you know what I
feel?
Here’s how I tell you "I love
you";
Here’s how I show you I
care;
Here’s how I say all you mean to
me
Feel how you feel in my
love.
Feel how my love wraps around
you,
Snuggling you close in its
care.
Feel how it loves to embrace
you;
Feel the sweet peace you find
there.
Feel the cares slip from your
shoulders.
Feel your load lightened by
love.
Feel the blessing you’re
knowing,
Safe in the arms of my
love.
Feel the contentment of
knowing
Someone is loving you
now.
Feel the joy that you’re
glowing;
Swept in the arms of my
love.
That’s how I tell you "I love
you";
That’s how I show you I
care;
That’s how I say all you mean to
me
That’s how I say what I
feel.
