Why worry about tomorrow?
Why worry about tomorrow, shall I stew about it now?
Shall I say, It is no use, give it up, throw in the towel?
Why worry about tomorrow, will it bring me health and gain?
Or shall I wake up in the morning, in poverty and pain?
Why worry about tomorrow, whatever comes my way?
I've got all that I can handle just to make it through today.
Why worry about tomorrow? There's no point or so it seems.
Will I wake up in the morning and find it's all been just a dream?
Tomorrow is only maybe, and though yesterday was rough.
Today is all I have, and yes, today is quite enough.
Yes, it's fun to dream, and there is nothing wrong with hopes.
But there's still a Master Planner, and He may just tell us Nope.
There is One who holds tomorrow, and only He knows what is best.
So I'll place my hand in His, He will help me meet the test.
I can't worry about tomorrow, it is God's and God's alone.
For today, I'll do my best, and give thanks when it is gone.

IF...
If I had known how much I'd love you
If I had known how much fun we'd have
I would've gotten to know you sooner
Maybe we would've made it last
If I had known it was the last time
If I had known I'd never see you again
I would've hugged you longer
I would've told you how I felt back then
If you had known how much I'd think of you
If you had known how hard I'd fall
Would you have made all those false promises
Like telling me you'd call?
If you knew how much you mean to me
If you knew how much I cry
Would you still leave me in the dark?
Would you still leave me with no goodbye?
If I could see you again
If I could have one more chance
I'd make sure you knew my heart
I'd make sure we had a dance
But there's nothing that I can do
Though I wish I could turn back time
So I could hold you in my arms
Instead of only in my mind
I didn't know you'd hurt me so badly
I didn't know you'd leave me feeling so alone
I wonder if I'd have loved you all the same
even If I Had Known...

Are you happy???
We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,
have a baby, then another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't
old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that we're
frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be
happy when they are out of that stage. We tell ourselves that our life
will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together, when we
get a nicer car, or are able to go on a nice vacation, when we retire.
The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not
now, when?
Your life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit
this to yourself and decide to be happy anyway.
Alfred D. Souza once said,
"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real
life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be
gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served,
a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that
these obstacles were my life."
This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness.
Happiness is the way.
So treasure every moment that you have. And treasure it more because
you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time.
And remember that time waits for no one.
So stop waiting
until you finish school,
until you go back to school,
until you lose ten pounds,
until you gain ten pounds,
until you have kids,
until your kids leave the house,
until you start work,
until you retire,
until you get married,
until you get divorced,
until Friday night,
until Sunday morning,
until you get a new car or home,
until your car or home is paid off,
until spring,
until summer,
until fall
until winter,
until you're off welfare,
until the first or fifteenth
until your song comes on,
until you've had a drink,
until you've sobered up,
until you die, to decide that there is no better time than right now to
be happy.
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
Work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, and
dance like no one is watching!

Wait For You
If only I had the guts, to tell you how I feel,
I would hold you forever,
and show you that I'm real.
And if I could, I would capture
every memory that we shared,
Seal and treasure it, never forget the times we cared...
But right now,
I just have to let our fate flow,
Going down the right path,
the one that we both know.
I don't want to admit
- too many feelings of mine,
In case I scare you off,
but I really am genuine.
I just hope that what I see, of you is just the truth,
Because I’d love for both of us to eventually pursue.
I’m standing here, as patient as I know how,
And even if you disagree, my mind will disavow.
I wish we both could just want the same thing,
As each day progresses,
happiness is what I’d bring.
You know that we are made for each other,
So just give me a chance,
just don’t say never.
You really worry me when you blow hot and cold,
If there is a problem just let your mind unfold.
And I know that you're afraid of commitment,
I can be too,
but just think of the times we've spent.
So as time moves on,
I hope we get together,
So when the time is right,
I can say - always and forever.
And right now,
these feelings I have to hide,
Because I’m afraid,
ill lose this chance for life.
So from this day onwards, I will wait,
For you to come and tell it straight,
I hope the decision you choose is me,
Can’t keep my hopes too high,
I’ll just have 2 wait and see.
