Here's the Why

The ground doesn't shake anymore,
My footing is solid.
My head is raised, looking ahead
Instead of anxiously down at my feet. 
Thoughts inside of my head sound familiar.
When I smile, it reaches my eyes.
When I laugh, I recognize the sound of my own voice.
The eyes are dry, my heart is whole.  
My gifts I give with my entire being. 
Oh yes, this is it.

Life is so much better with you.
