Read this in Dear Abby when I was 12 years old..... Read through it often over the years...something told me, tonights the night to share it..... Comes The Dawn After a while you learn the subtle difference Between holding a hand and chaining a soul, & you learn that love doesn’t mean leaving, & company doesn’t mean security, & you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts & presents aren’t promises, & you begin to accept your defeats With your head up & your eyes open With the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child,.& you learn to build all your roads on today, Because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans, & futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure... That you really are strong, And you really do have worth. And you learn.....and you learn... With every goodbye you learn. Author: Veronica A. Shoffstall
