Today I found a friend
who knew everything I felt.
She knew my weakness
and the problems I've been dealt.
She understood my wonders
and listened to my dreams,
She listened to how I felt about life and love
and knew what it all means.
Not once did she interrupt me
or tell me I was wrong
She understood what I was going through
and promised she'd stay long.
I reached out to this friend,
to show her that I care
to pull her close and let her know
how much I need her there.
I went to hold her hand
to pull her a bit nearer
and I realized this perfect friend I found
was nothing but a mirror.

This poem says so well what I want to say about happiness. We can not depend on people here on earth to determine whether we are happy or not. Happiness is not the prize at the end of our journey but something that we seek to find all along the way. I challenge you today to look and see how special you truly are. May God Bless you and help you in your journey.
