Footprints

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Scenes from his life flashed across the sky
and he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life had flashed before him,
he recalled that at the lowest and saddest times of his life
there was only one set of footprints.

Dismayed, he asked, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
I don't understand why, when I needed you most,
you would leave me."

The Lord replied, "My precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffering
when you saw only one set of footprints...

That was when I carried you."

to my mom......


I don't want you to worry;
I don't want you to worry because I failed so many of my few trials.
I don't want you to worry because I made mistakes through my early ages.
Don't let worry consume your mind because this one step of my life was silent.
My determination is too huge for your trust to be so weak;
For if I determine myself to fail I will do so, but if i determine to succeed, no mistake can be so great to put me down in the grave.
All I want is two open minds with extravagant ideas to come one at heart.
No matter how distant you ever were, my love for you never changed, my prayers for you never stopped, and my eyes never saw what everyone else could see.
I could see much more than what your silence said.
I saw your effort.
I saw your non-stop battle,
and I saw you.

chance MADE you My mOthEr, LOVE made YoU my FrIeNd.
