Favorite Quote:
"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life."

I am not lonely
Even though I'm seen me walking in alone.
I have seen that I am never alone,
Because I have you.

Though I am usually by myself,
I always have you by my side.
Now that I have seen the extraordinary,
I know I have you.

You are like another set of eyes;
Everything around me is not unseen to you.
Nothing I do goes without witness,
Because I have you.

I am not alone
Though it seems that I am.
I know now that I've never been on my own,
Because I have you.

The author's comments:

When we are alone, we really aren't alone. How is that possible? It's possible because God is always with us. We may not figure it out soon, or at all, but sometimes we can sit back and know that God never leaves.
