Footprints in the Sand

I just want to share this wonderful poem
-that always..it always does..
-gives me hope in every challenges and trials
-I face on my Journey.

May it also inspire you as you travel your way.
God Bless!

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 belonged to him and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that 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 time 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 your times of trials and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."

My Perception

When it comes to love,
You're willing to sacrifice...

You'll do anything....
Almost everything...

You lie...
You cry...
You smile...

You become a slave to your own feelings...

Love changes your moods...
Your every being...

The way you think...
The way you see things around you...
The way you perceive life...

Without love...
Life is a waste...
Dull...
Hollow...
No life at all...

For this,
I wouldn't dare living my life...
Without YOU...

'cause you're....

My love...
My life...
