Strength…

 

It’s sometimes found

in unexpected places.

In the warmth of the sun

on our skin.

In the sound of a bird’s

soft call.

In the joyous laughter

of a small child.

In the love of a special

friend.

In the unexpected letter

that comes our way.

In the beautiful sight of

friendship’s smile.

In the soft embrace of someone

who cares for us.

In the words of kindness

spoken with concern.

In the soothing flow of

the tide as it rushes in and out.

Small things, sometimes not always noticed.

They give balm to our soul,

and uplift our spirits.

Small pieces of strength

help us to move on and put

one foot in front of the other.

Soon those footsteps lead

us on our new path.

A stronger path

because we’ve shared our

strength.
