He will get you through it.

Travelling Through Life (Haiku)


As I take a step
Towards the unknown future
I go forth bravely

With you by my side
A reassuring presence...
Nothing scares me now

Together we shall
Tread the path that awaits us-
A whole new journey





Sensational Haiku Wednesday!” is hosted by Jenn at "You know... that Blog?"

Click here for info and background on this weekly event!
The basics:
Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

This week’s theme is:TRAVEL


Join the fun!

Next week’s theme: Contemplation


This post is also for Thursday Poets Rally 
Week 24... 


For spreading sunshine through her poem Then, A Cricket Chirred
I nominate Jingle for The Perfect Poet Award for Week 24.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you decide to see beyond the imperfections.


"Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward to the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence." ~ Og Mandino


If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting, but I would have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything.
