Journal Entry #3

(From October 10, 2005)

Shards of glass
lying on the sidewalk
Where they come from
Why they're there
I don't know
But don't they
Sparkle?

------------------------------

If God made each of us perfect
If we all had a purpose in life
Why do I feel
So flawed
inadequate
When do I see
this Purpose He planned for me?
I guess I'll hold on
And try not to destroy
What I have

------------------------------

A butterfly's wings
So delicate and gentle
Can shred on a nail
The most lovely form of nature
To help a creature fly.
