We Change.......
When I was in my younger days,
I weighed a few pounds less,
I needn't hold my tummy in
To wear a belted dress.
But now that I am older,
I've set my body free;
There's comfort of elastic
Where once my waist would be.
Inventor of those high-heeled shoes
My feet have not forgiven;
I have to wear a nine now,
But used to wear a seven.
And how about those pantyhose--
They're sized by weight, you see,
So how come when I put them on,
The crotch is at my knees?
I need to wear these glasses
As the prints were getting smaller;
And it wasn't very long ago
I know that I was taller.
Though my hair has turned to silver
and my skin no longer fits,
On the inside, I'm the same old me,
Just the outside's changed a bit.
What I have learned though this is...
I've learned no matter what happens,
or how bad it seems
today,
life does go on, and it will be
better tomorrow.
I've learned that you can tell a lot
about a person
by the way he/she handles
these three things:
- a rainy day
- lost luggage
- tangled Christmas tree lights.
I've learned that regardless of your
relationship with your parents,
you'll miss them when they're gone from
your life.
I've learned that making a "living"
is
not the same thing as making a "life."
I've learned that life sometimes
gives
you a second chance.
I've learned that you shouldn't go
through life
with a catcher's mitt on
both hands.
You need to be able to
throw something back.
I've learned that if you pursue happiness,
it will elude you. But if you focus on
your family,
your friends, the needs of
others, your work
and doing the very best
you can,
happiness will find you.
I've learned that whenever
I decide
something with an open heart,
I usually
make the right decision.
I've learned that even when I have pains,
I don't have to be one.
I've learned that every day you
should
reach out and touch someone.
People love
that human touch -
holding hands,
a warm hug, or
just a friendly pat on
the back.
I've learned that people will forget what
you said,
people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made
them feel.
