*Imagine That*

     Imagine not worrying too much. Imagine not hurrying too much. Imagine having only nice things to say. Imagine life with smiles and not frowns. Imagine your best friend is always around. Imagine loved ones never leave. Imagine never having to grieve. Imagine life with no sadness or pain. Imagine rainbows when you walk in the rain. Imagine your heart never hurts bad. Imagine your days aren't all sad. Imagine that.
     Imagine with every good-bye just around the corner is a sweet, "Hi." Imagine the road that you once traveled is merely your blanket that's now unraveled. You walked years of roads and many miles under your feet. Then you opened a gate and crossed a street. Imagine that.
     Imagine that you sat alone in the sand. Then a special friend took your hand. Imagine the work you do and the mountains you climb. And it doesn't matter if you don't have a rhyme. Imagine that.
     Imagine climbing with tears and facing your fears on your new road. And your unraveled blanket in a heap is your cherished old road and something you keep. Imagine that.
     But it's  new day and it's a new road. Imagine new courage to climb with this new load. Your load is heavy and the road a steep hill. Some friends will help and some will stand still. Some make your load heavier and some make your load light. But you carry your load in spite of the fight. Imagine that.
     Imagine that you walk and you fall. And sometimes your road is no fun at all. Imagine really trusting God as your guide. Imagine never having to hide. Imagine remembering the good not the bad. Imagine the happy not the sad. Imagine that.
     So my friend I'm telling you imagine on your road I'm praying for you. And when you fall give me a call. I'll be there. I do care. Imagine we walk and talk. And together we will climb. My friend we will take one step at a time. Imagine that!
