REFLECTION

by Samantha Waits   Jan 5, 2006


I looked in the mirror
and saw my life;
all my joy and all my strife.
The bad times and the good.

I saw how many people I hurt
And I saw the friends I made.
I watched in the mirror as my life played,
I cried and I laughed as I relived those days.

After it was done
and I saw only me
I dropped to my knees
and I prayed to the good Lord.

"Thank you for your precious blessings
And I'm sorry it took this long for me to
realize these wonderful times were planned by you.
Thank you for loving me so much."

Things happen for a reason
and we just have to learn to live with it,
and live minute by minute
because time flies faster than you think.
