For Rachel

Because you see beyond yourself...

From Rachel

"People always ask me who my best friend is.. But I never have a solid answer. I have too many great friends, but none like my mom. She is a great blessing in my life and I am so thankful for her. So from now on when people ask who my best friend is, it isn't going to be a question I'm going to ask myself, I'll have my mind made up right away! My mom is my BEST friend. :)"

Not Yet

As you walk, as you pass, there is no romance or balance in the voices
Just a chilly laughter
Do not mix with the crowds yet - the spirit has not changed them
As you walk, as you pass, you defend all the defeated and defenseless fears
But gold still refuses to be sifted
Do not blossom yet - all the shovels are looking for you
As you walk, as you pass, there is a helmet on each crown
And life seems like an illusion that can never be conceived by you
Do not open your eyes yet - the cages are still bigger than the land
