Things Poems Have Said to Me
Things Poems Have Said to Me
"Notice the beauty in the world."
"Love is still worth believing in."
"Does your heart remember this?"
"Let me surprise you with these words."
"Here is a little order in the midst of chaos."
"I know it hurts to be human."
"I have felt what you are feeling."
"You are not alone."
— John Mark Green

For Those on the Journey -healing poem
From 📖 The Light You Need: Words of Hope and Encouragement
-
What you went through does not define you. The light inside of you is stronger than the darkness you endured. You are a victor, not a victim...
-
With grief, there are no right words. Only the quiet presence of those who care. 💙
