happy to be here...

I've never been here before, I've never felt this way.
I've never had so much time behind me, I've never seen today.
I never could have predicted the circumstances I'm in
I never was able to see where I was - so lost in where I had been.
I always knew it was in me - strength and resolve. It's true!
I always had a seed of faith. I always knew I'd find you.
Even when despairing and wanting myself to die
I held onto Life and trudged along. I never knew just why.
So now I've arrived here at Never and always will recall
when things turned around - my head above ground -
at last! He answered my call.
Cuz I never quite quit believing. I always found time to pray
I just never thought that I could stop.
So happy to be here today.

here's a good saying to go along with this - the past is gone. let it go. the future is not yet set, don't worry about it. today is a gift - that's why it's called 'the present'. (it went something like that) :)

Great poem with such a good message. Most of us always seem to be looking to see what the future will bring and miss the pleasures of the here and now...good to remember to stop and enjoy what we have in the moment.
