Inspiration

In these days of such tragedy such as we have seen at Virginia Tech, we have to build one another up, embrace one another, and send love to every person we meet. Love is stronger than hate, and love will triumph in the end. Here's a little thought for the day.

Inspiration

If I could climb to heavenly heights,
And beg one gift from the white-winged choir
I would not ask a greater boon
Than the power to inspire,
To lift by timely words and acts
The weak from day to day,
To point them to a higher life
To brighten all their way.

Inspire and life one another up. Let everyone see God in you.

God be with you,
Donna

Prayers for Virginia Tech

Yesterday saw great tragedy in loss of friends and family of many at Virginia Tech. I am saddened and shocked, as everyone is, that such a thing has happened.

I send my deepest condolences and prayers to all who have lost those dear to them. I hope the sentiments of James Whitcomb Riley will be of some solace.

Away

I cannot say, and I will not say
That he is dead. He is just away!

With a cheery smile, and a wave of his hand
He has wandered into an unknown land

And left us dreaming how very fair
Its needs must be, since he lingers there.

And you--oh, who the wildest yearn
For his step, and the glad return--

Think of him faring on, as dear
In the love of There, as the love of Here.

Think of him still as the same, I say,
he is not dead--he is just away.

God bless you and keep you all and them in His most tender care.

With much love,
Donna
