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 to the lord.
    When the last scene flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed the many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also 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 i would never leave you. during the times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that i carried you."
back
Standing by,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.

Holding you up,
When you are weak.
Helping you find what it is you seek.

Catching your tears,
When you cry.
Pulling you through when the tide is high.

Absorbing your voice,
When you talk,
Standing by when you learn to walk.

Just being there,
Through thick and thin.
All just to say, you are my friend.
        -Brittani Kokko_
Follow your heart and your dreams will come true

The Challenge
Let others lead small lives,
        But not you.
Let others argue over small things.
        But not you.
Let other cry over small hurts.
        But not you.
Let others leave their futures in                someone elses hands,
        But not you.

   -Jim Rohn
 
Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill.
When funds are low and the debts are high.
And you want to smile, but have to sigh.
When care is pressing you down a bit.
Rest, if you must, but don't quit.
Life is queer with it's twists and turns.
As everyone of us sometimes learns.
And many as faliures turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out:

Don't give up though the pace seems slow.-
You may suceed with another blow.
Success is faliure turned inside out.-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are.
It may be near when it seems so far:
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit.
It's when things seems worst that you must not QUIT.
Hello?!
hello are you there
do you miss me
or just not care?
All i'm asking is for some time
i honestly didn't know
that was a crime
then i tell you
but i guess you can't see
why i'm asking for something so small
you make it seem like nothing at all

you sleep pass noon
and watch cartoons
and go biking with your friends
then when i ask for time
the conversation ends

i'm not asking for a million bucks
it's just time with you
so what the fuck?

you tell me you're just busy
that's a load of shit
maybe you want to leave me
in a darkended pit
that's just fine with me
but don't come knocking at my door
when the whole world dumps you
don't come running back for more.
POEMS
A Pledge To Myself
Today i pledge to be
             the best possible me
No matter how good i am
              I know that i can become better

Today i pledge to build
               in the works of yesterday
Which will lead me
               into the rewards of tomorrow

Today I pledge to feed
               my mind:knowledge
                my body: strength, and
               my spirit: faith

Today i pledge to reach
                 new goals
                  new challenges, and
                 new horizons

Today i pledge to listen
                to the beat of my drummer
Who leads me onward
                in search of dreams

Today i pledge to believe
                  in me
