Download Feel better about
yourself today and create a new you...
In your eyes.
In your eyes soo sweet, I read the dream of man
In your eyes soo transparent I see again all
other eyes
The blue of the rivers, the white of the
mountains, the green of the meadows,
The red of the fires and stars
The eyes of another world, the eyes of the
universe.

EARTH DAY
WRITTEN BY JANE YOLEN (age 6)
I AM THE EARTH AND THE EARTH IS ME
EACH BLADE OF GRASS, EACH HONEY TREE, EACH BIT OF MUD AND
STICK AND STONE IS BLOOD
MUSCLE SKIN AND BONE AND JUST AS I NEED
EVERY BIT OF ME TO MAKE MY BODY FIT
SO EARTH NEEDS GRASS AND STONE AND TREES AND
THINGS THAT GROW HERE NATURALLY
THAT’S WHY WE CELEBRATE THIS DAY
THAT’S WHY ACROSS THE WORLD WE SAY AS LONG AS
LIFE
LIKE A DEER IS FREE
I AM THE EARTH AND THE EARTH IS ME
"What would I do, if I knew that I could not
fail?
If I believed, would the wind always fill up my sail?
How far would I go? What could I achieve,
trusting the hero in me?
If I were brave, I’d walk the razor’s edge,
where fools and dreamers dare to tread.
I'd never lose faith, even when losing my way.
What step would I take today, if I were brave?
What would I do today, if I were brave?
What would I do today, if I were brave?"
Jana Stanfield
Self esteem
"Why would you want to be someone that you are
not?
When you could be better by being yourself.
Why pretend to walk in someone else's shoes?
When you have something they haven't got.
Just cheating yourself of the life you have to
live
Deprives others of that only which you can
give.
But you have much more to offer by being just
you.
Trying to live the life of another is a
mistake.
It is a masquerade, nothing more than fake."
Bintou
"Today I will have courage
To do one thing that is new
I will be kind to another
And to myself be true
Today I will remember
The blessings that are mine
I'll live the day with confidence
And for me the sun will shine"
(Unknown author)
"I will not die an unlived life
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible;
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance,
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom,
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit."
-Dawna Markova
Friends are quiet angels
Who lift us to our feet
When our wings have trouble remembering how to fly
They stand by us and give us
the strength to try
Friends are quiet angels
Who somehow make you see
The light that's in the darkness
before the dawn
All at once the journey's not so long
But it's the laughter and the fun
Sometimes the feeling that we're one
All the tears we cry together you and I
That will keep us heart to heart
as time goes by
Friends are quiet angels
Who fill your life with grace
Thrilled to share your joy
when a dream comes true
And on this special day
I'm blessed 'cause I can say
I've found a quiet angel
You're a special angel
I found a quiet angel in you
