You are You

 

• You are strong when you take your grief and teach it to smile.

• You are brave when you overcome your fear and help others to do the same.

• You are happy when you see a flower and are thankful for the blessing.

• You are loving when your own pain does not blind you to the pain of others.

• You are wise when you know the limits of your wisdom.

• You are true when you admit there are times you fool yourself.

• You are alive when tomorrow's hope means more to you than yesterday's mistake.

• You are growing when you know what you are but not what you will become.

• You are free when you are in control of yourself and do not wish to control others.

• You are honorable when you find your honor is to honor others.

• You are generous when you can take as sweetly as you can give.

• You are humble when you do not know how humble you are.

• You are thoughtful when you see me just as I am and treat me just as you are.

• You are merciful when you forgive in others the faults you condemn in yourself.

• You are beautiful when you don't need a mirror to tell you.

• You are rich when you never need more than what you have.

• You are you when you are at peace with who you are not.
