The Gift of Hope

When you need some help
to get through the day;
when you need a whole lot less
to concern you,
and a whole lot more 
to smile about...
sometimes you just have to remember:

It really is going to be okay.
You're going to make it 
through this day.
Even if it's one step at a time.

Sometimes you just have to be patient
and brave and strong.
If you don't know how,
just make it up as you go along.
And hold on to your hope as though 
it were a path to follow 
or a song to sing.

Because if you have hope
you have everything.
