My take on the quote:
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us." Ralph Waldo Emerson
The past is gone,
life goes on,
hurt and pain aside.
Giving my all,
never to fall,
love; all that matters.
Future looks bright,
goals are in sight,
faith keeps me going.
Giving is my gift,
gives me a lift,
to help whenever I can.
