Reaching for Rainbows

Reaching for Rainbows

If we don't ever take chances,
we don't reach the rainbows.
If we don't ever search,
we'll never be able to find.
If we don't attempt to get over our doubts & fears,
we'll never discover how wonderful it is to live without them.
If we don't go beyond difficulty,
we won't grow any stronger.
If we don't keep our dreams alive,
we won't have our dreams any longer.
But...
if we can take a chance now & then,
seek & search, discover & dream,
grow & go through each day
with the knowledge that
we can only take as much as we can give,
& we can only get as much out of life
as we allow ourselves to live...
Then...
we can be truly happy.
We can realize a dream or two along the way,
& we can make a habit of reaching out for rainbows
& coloring our lives with wonderful days.

note to self: never give up until you reach your dream. :]]
-- broad minded. :P
