Thinking of you

"Somewhere there's someone who dreams of your smile,
and finds in your presence that life is worth while.
So when you are lonely, remember it's true
Somebody somewhere is thinking of you."

- K. Blackburn -

I think this is a great quote. We all feel lonely at times and worse, we feel alone. It's important to know that everyone is loved by someone. We are all special, worthwhile and unique. Every one of us has something wonderful to contribute to this world even if we don't realize what "it" is.

It's amazing how one person can touch the lives of so many. I know it's cliche, but think of the movie "It's A Wonderful Life". Without George Bailey, the whole town is a miserable dark place. Now I'm not suggesting we all have George Bailey impact on the lives of those around us, but we do have something.

Every day is a new opportunity to make a difference in someone else's life. Every day is a new chance for a better life for ourselves. The beauty is in the details too, you don't have to do anything grand to make a difference. Send a friend a quick note, smile at a stranger, help someone out that you see struggling. You never know how much your small gesture could mean to someone who is having a rotten day.
