I’m Wealthy
Wealth shouldn’t be measured by the amount of money you have or don’t have, but by how many people are your friends and to how many people you are a friend.
Wealth is how much love you have to give and loving someone is a part of the todays fortune of being able to give.
I am in deed rich, because of you. You are my friend and I am yours. We both are rich.
By Nikki G. Johnson
A Tear
One solitary drop filled with over flowing emotion, revealing something deep within, from the heart and soul.
A symbol of love, joy and fear, sorrow.
So simple, small; yet over powering.
So uncomplicated in this world of confusion.
