Poem by Cheryl Hawkinson
I got this poem on a card from a member of my home church... It has been very fitting for how I have felt pushed and pulled by people who are passionate but don´t always stop to see if I am passionate for the same thing they are.
Sometimes it´s hard
   to sing your own song
   when everyone else
      wants you to sing theirs.
People can be full of advice
    about what you should do
       and when you should do it, and where.
They usually mean well,
    but nobody can know exactly
    what is right for you-- except you.
So I don´t want to give you
    advice you don´t need
I just want to say--
    Have faith in yourself
(I would add trust that God is true to His promises.)
    and listen to your heart.
Within you lies
    some very special music
    just waiting to be sung by you alone.
(I would add, that I have been blessed and God will use me in the world.)
