There is a special place
in life,

that needs my humble skill,


 
a certain job I'm meant to do,

         which no one else can fulfill.





The time
will be demanding

and the pay is not too good


 
and yet I wouldn't change it for a moment

          - even if I could.





There is a special place in life,

 a goal I must attain,


 
a dream that I must follow,

         because I won't be back again.






 There is a mark

 that I must leave,

         however small

                 it seems to be,



         
a legacy of love

                 for those who follow

                        after me.






 There is a special place in life,

 that only I may share,


 
a little path

         that bears my name,


                 awaiting me

                         somewhere.






 There is a hand

 that I must hold,

         
a word

          that I must say,


                 a smile
                that I must give


                        
 for there are tears to blow away.





 There is a special place in life

         that I was meant to fill,



 
a sunny spot

 where flowers grow

         upon a windy hill.






 There's always a tomorrow
         and the best is yet to be,


                 and somewhere

                         in this world,


            
     I know

                         there is

                                 a place

                                         for

                                                 me.



-A Special Place
~Author Unknown
Music:  Somewhere Out There
"Living with integrity means:

Not settling for less than
what you know you deserve in your relationships.

Asking for what you want and need from others.

Speaking truth,
even thought it might create conflict or tension.

Behaving in ways that are in harmony
with your personal values.

Making choices based on what you believe,
and not what others believe."
--Barbara De Angelis

Why are you here?
What's
your place;
your purpose?
How close are
you to fulfilling it?

The difference between ordinary
and extraordinary
is that little extra.
