Reflections

Remembering the past hurts

Every tear that fall from my eyes

Forgiving is a step forward

Living and learning to let go

Entering into a new phase of life

Concentrating on positive thoughts

Time is too precious to waste

Ideas flowing through my mind

Only the Lord knows my heart

Now, I will sing a new song

Strength from above is what it’s all about.

Life

Life is giving
Life is taking
Life is what you make it.

Life is caring
Life is sharing
Life is what you make it.

Life is ups
Life is downs
Life is what you make it.

Life is seeing
Life believing
Life is what you make it.

Life is hearing
Life is feeling
Life is what you make it.

Life is talking
Life is walking
Life is playing
Life is what you make it.

Life is rich
Life is poor
Life is what you make it.

Tears Ago

Tears ago you were always by my side
Now, you run and hide.

Tears ago you were there when I needed a friend
You stuck with me through thick and thin.

So many tears ago, So many tears ago

Tears ago you were the beat of my heart
Now, you have gone and torn it apart.

Tears ago you were the love of my life
Now, there’s pain and strife.

So many tears ago, So many tears ago

Tears ago we held each other tight
Now, we always fuss and fight.

Tears ago you had a beautiful mind
Now, there are only memories to rewind.

So many tears ago, So many tears ago

Forever

Forever and always
I will be by your side
I will never leave you
I will give you strength
When you are weak
Forever, forever and always

When you are sad
I will put a smile on your face.
When you are down, I will pick you up
Forever, forever and always

When you need a friend
I will be by your side
When you want to talk
I am listening, I will be around
Forever, forever and always

When the going gets tough
And you have had enough
Call me, I will be there
Forever, forever and always

Determined

I’m Determined
I’m going to hold my head up high
I will not rest until I’ve done my best

I want to make my dreams come true
That’s what I am going to do

I’m determined to reach the top
I’m determined to go all the way

I know that it’s never too late
No matter what people say
I may not know my fate
But I will not go astray

I’m determined to reach to top
I’m determined to go all the way

I’m going to soar to the top
I’ll never give up, no I won’t stop

I’ll go all the way through
To make my dreams come true

I’m determined to reach to top
I’m determined to go all the way

Remember Me

I want you to remember me
When we are miles apart,
Even when we talk on the phone
And maybe take a pause...
I want you to remember me

*

You will always have a place in my heart

*

I want you to remember me
Just in case you still have doubt.
I want you to remember me...
Just take a moment or two.
I want you to remember me

*

I want you to hold on to the memories

*

In your heart and mind,
I want you to remember me.
I gave you all I have
I want you to remember me
Forget about what they say
I want you to remember me...

***

Forget about what they think...
I want you to remember me.
