Sometimes All We Need...





Sometimes what seems impossible
…an uphill slip and slide
Becomes a downhill joyride with
Somebody at our side


Sometimes we would give up and quit
After we tried and tried
But then along comes what we need
…somebody at our side

Sometimes the road up to the top
Is more than one man wide
It's a shoulder-to -shoulder crawl
With someone at our side

    1. :) Exactly. These little guys I babysit show me this constantly. There's nothing that sparks their determination and courage like the other one!
