Together we can Uplift

Josh, Matthew and my little sister Alisa recently entered the reflections contest. Josh won with a poem he wrote, and Alisa won for with her artwork and music! Matthew wrote a beautiful entry about his little brother, Caleb that I have already shared. I'm so proud of each one of them!!

Together we can
Uplift


People all around the world

are wishing for a friend.

You can be that hero

the guiding light

the hand.


You can be that friend

To help their wish come true,

what once was far away

is close,

and all because of you.


People everyday are lost

and you can be that guide

to help them on a rocky path

to help their wings

take flight.


When someone is blown over,

and needs a helping hand

reach out your arm

give them a lift,

and help them up to stand.


We all matter to each other

be that glow that we all need.

Shine brightly as you try to help

and do a kindly a deed.
