...if only


...if only...




if only...
we could sparkle a little more.

~ effervescence is contagious ~




if only...
we had the courage to fly.

 ~ it's not always about the destination ~




sometimes,

~ it's about the journey ~

~ believe in your bliss ~




if only...
 our life's "footprints" were walked in love.  

~ our world would be more beautiful ~

~ beauty is, as beauty does ~




if only...
 we believed in fairy tales
and 
 happy endings.

~ the world would be a more magical place ~

~ hopes and dreams would thrive ~




if only...
we hugged each other everyday
and said "i love you" a little more.

~ our health and well being would increase ~
~ and our insurance premiums would decrease ~




if only...
we could dwell in the possibilities.

~ solutions to any question would always be within our grasp ~




if only...
we remembered what we wanted to be when we grew up.
and that feeling of being on top of the world.

~ would it change where we were heading now?? ~




if only...
we could give everyone a second chance.

~ life is complicated enough, can't we cut each other some slack?  ~
~ including ourselves?? ~




ah yes,
...if only.
