Blessings from my little corner of the world. If you haven't had a hug lately give yourself a hug.

Stand Tall
Children come and children go,
Children play and children grow.
Children smile when when they're loved it's true,
How's the child that lives in you?
How's your child of yesterday?
Is your inner child okay?
Is your inner child glad or sad?
Is your inner child doing good or bad?
Some children are told to be seen and not heard,
Some children were afraid and spoke not a word.
Some children didn't have a voice,
Some children didn't have a choice.
Yes, children laugh and children cry,
And little children wonder why.
Some parents are nice and some are mean,
Some are a child's nightmare, but some are a dream.
Then parents and children and seasons change,
Children become parents, isn't it strange?
The life cycle begins again,
Some children lose and some children win.
Stand tall if your inner child was confused,
Stand tall if your inner child was abused.
Stand tall if you were scarred in childhood,
Stand tall if no one understood.
Stand tall protect the ones you love,
Stand tall to the bullies that continue to shove.
Stand tall when you want to run and hide.
Stand tall when your child cries inside.
Stand tall when your life makes no sense,
Stand tall when you fall off the fence.
And next time someone makes you feel small,
Remember you're God's child, so stand tall.
