In a world full of chaos and hate,

you wanna know what lifts me up...

you wanna know what makes me smile...

you wanna know how I am able to persevere,

and maintain a purpose in spite of difficulty?

 

Once upon a time I could have said...

"Not a damn thing!"

 

But now...I've realized that faith, 

and hope is all I really need to march on.

 

Knowing that me being a light in someone else's life,

can be oh so contagious...

 

Knowing that I can make a difference in someone elses life...

 

knowing that I can cause someone to shed a tear due to happiness instead of hurt or fear...

 

knowing that I can infect someone else with this little light of mine...

 

knowing that it might have to get worse, before it gets better...

 

but realizing that through faith and hope,

 

"This too, shall pass..."

 

and things WILL get better.
