I matter, though the world may not see…gonna reveal to the world all the gifts God has given me…

I Matter

I matter, you must know…

Within me a seed was planted, so long ago.

Yeah, I’ve made mistakes; haven’t we all?

But something inside me picks me up when I fall.

I matter, can you tell? Can’t you see?

There’s this power that resides in the deepest part of me.

Oh, I know, I’m quiet, polite and shy…

But, I’ve grown my wings…now it’s time for me to fly.

I matter, though the world may not see…

Gonna reveal to all, the gifts God has given me.

A life well-lived is not to keep to oneself…

So I’m opening myself up, like taking a book off the shelf.

I matter, what I have is unique and worth sharing…

And to everyone in my life, thanks for all of your love and caring.

I Matter – The truth is, everyone matters, but sometimes we are the last ones to realize it. We all have been endowed with gifts that are uniquely our own. Be they talents for music, art or writing, having an aptitude for working well with numbers, or being able to build or fix things with ease…we all have something to offer others…including our own life experiences.

My challenge to you is to determine what it is you do best…that thing that makes you matter…and share it with those around you. Sharing a part of yourself with others is what makes you matter the most!

Peace and love,

Felecia

It’s all in the family…they say that blood is thicker than water, and when it comes to love, it’s all in the family.

“The love of a family is life’s greatest blessing.” (author unknown)

It’s all in the family…love that is! Have you ever thought of where love comes from? Can you remember the first time that you’ve ever experienced the warm and cozy feeling that only genuine love can produce? For me, I can honestly say that my very first acquaintance with true love was made right amongst my own family. When I am with my family, it seems like I am oblivious to the outside world. I suppose the best way that I can describe how I feel when I am surrounded by my loved ones, is like snuggling up inside a big fuzzy blanket…it’s one of the best feelings in the world!

The love that exudes from a family creates a bond between its members that can never truly be broken…we are always connected. Whether you get to be with your family frequently or if time and distance only allows for visits few and far between, the love that flows from your hearts seals any gaps and brings you together with your loved ones on a different level. The good times and the bad times, the memories that have been made and played out by each member of the family during times spent together are woven tightly…hmmm, like the fabric of that fuzzy blanket I’ve mentioned earlier.

Living together, caring for and sharing with each other, being there through thick and thin, these are all significant forms of affection that portray the depth of the kind of love a family experiences and understands. They are not carried out by force or by burdensome effort. Rather, they just happen within the family…it is family love in action.

I realize that not everyone has had the opportunity to build upon and experience the genuine, coveted love that flows freely to link and keep a family together. But I challenge those who have, to try spreading some of their own special bonding love to those around you.

It’s all in the family…love that is;

It’s a bond that’s genuine and true.

It is my hope that all may experience it…

And may the blanket called”family” always cover you.
