although times are hard <br />and we struggle <br /> with life <br /> and love <br />it takes only hope <br /> and optomism to survive <br />there are few things <br /> such as compassion <br />for otheres <br /> and ourselves <br /> a shoulder <br />no matter how young ot old <br /> to cry on <br /> a friendly smile <br /> in times of trial <br /> a family <br />that you can always run to <br /> and a strong gand <br />that can help you up <br /> when you loose <br /> your footing <br /> slip and fall <br /> these things <br />although simple <br /> and often plain <br />are the thing <br /> we need most <br />to fuel the fire <br /> of our hearts <br />and the <br />spark of our lives<br /><br />casandra jacobs<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/simple-little-things/
