The ups and down of Life

Here are a few thoughts on the ups and downs of life
_____________________________________________________________

HEAVEN KNOWS
May the clouds part before you on your way.
May the sun brighten your path everyday.
And when you're alone and face the night,
May the weight on your mind be light.
We have had pleasures . . . and treasures,
There were so many and many were ours.
The sun rises, the sun sets,
And life is as complex as it gets.
Anxiously running to a place we'd rather not go,
Wondering and worrying because we do not know.
Our strength does wax and wane,
And we feel out of control again.
We must bow our heads again,
So we can lift our chins, and begin.
Our connection to Diety, sometimes strong,
Is the one connection that is never wrong.
Heaven knows where to find us,
And Heaven's cause is always just.
While we are in the heat of life's blows,
May we learn what an angel knows.
 May the angels lift the ones who fall behind,
And help in the rescue of all mankind.
At all times, Heaven wants to be known,
And is always waiting for our return home.
