Emotions

          Emotions is a big word Not often understood. We struggle from day to day Trying to feel only the good.

          We ponder all the good things So often tearing them apart. Not realizing one thing That they came from the heart.

          We take the good emotions Never really giving thanks. For these are not the only ones That loom within our ranks.

          We all have sad emotions They come from time to time. Not ever really knowing why Just hoping we'll survive.

          So treasure each emotion For they have meanings too. They help us to gain strength In life with everything we do.

          Each emotion has a meaning It's up to us to find out what. And though we are uncertain We tend to take them with a grain of salt.

          I have learned some lessons In this lifetime short and fast. That if we stopped to think at all That we could make a longer past.

          The future may not always Be as bright as we would like. But with a faith inside our souls We know in time we will unite.

          Written by Deborah, treasure each emotion as they add value to our lives
