It's a good thing to take some time and give yourself some credit. We get so caught up in responsibility that we forget to congratulate ourselves on things we have done well. It's important to remember our worth and build on our accomplishments. Have confidence in our strength,
And acknowledge all our successes.

This poem was written with a lot of emotion and tears of acceptance. Although each line of the poem is universal-they have great personal meaning for me. I'm glad that my words may have comforted you in some way. Kimberly Pam, I am so sorry for you and your family’s loss. This poem was written with a lot of emotion and tears of acceptance.

be a discovery into strength we never knew we had.

2009 was a test of my family’s strength for sure. The landscape of my family was changed forever with the death of my nephew. We truly did discover a strength that we never knew we had.

The message that I take from your toast is that life is a combination of good and bad and we should appreciate the good and if we have had bad experiences, we need to keep moving forward. Face the New Year with hope.

Happy New Year to everyone!
