    Dear k8tyB:

    Would like very much to read the poem that reminded you so much of you. How about you starting a new thread with that other poem? This thread should be dedicated to Shirley’s work of art and life!

    Dear Shirley:

    I know you had a tough day today. These two lines may fit today:

    “The important thing is that you keep going, keep believing no matter what
    Don’t let others, your inadequacies or fear hold you back from climbing the mountain of life.”

    Thanks anita;) I think this thread can also be the thread (or start another forum) people post their sorrows and obstacles, anything that has been bothering them and we can all give each other advice and encourage each other. I am working on a poem could ‘Believe’ and it’s about that you are stronger than you think, braver than you feel and smarter than you think. Feel free to piost and share your own thoughts as well;)

    Dear Shirley:

    You are full of thoughts and ideas for threads, from goals to fears to sorrows. Shirley on a roll! I like your poem here as it is. I learned from being active on this site that the threads that get the most attention are those where people tell about a personal problem and seek advice. On the other hand, thread on general topics, like those I posted in the past, one even with a poem, as well as threads like the wonderful topics you posted today, they get less attention.

    Nonetheless, I like your threads and they are valuable. You never know who is reading your thread and is helped by it although they do not comment. This is a public forum and lots of people read the posts here without commenting.

    Thank you for all your activity here, Shirley. You sure do reach out to help the community, here, in your school and elsewhere… but please do take care of yourself first. Take the time to do so especially when you have so much going on in school!

    Thanks anita;) i agree that threads that give advice attract more people since i think everyone needs guidance at times in life. there are times when I am stressed and it is great to have an inspiration community on tinybuddha to help and give advice. i often find myself helping my friends before i do school work if the friend is upset or really needs some comfort, i’ll put myself on hold and help my friend.

    Dear Shirley:

    Take care of yourself first, Shirley! Your job is to take care of yourself first and foremost!

    There is so much in your poem that I like. Here is a most energizing, motivating part:

    “Take your life into your own hands
    Every second counts, cause there’s no second try
    It’s all or nothing
    So live like you’ve never lived before
    Take risks, live the life of your dreams”

    I still like your poem a lot!
    Thank you for it, again!

    Dear Shirley:

    These are the lines from your poem I particularly like this morning:

    “So live like you’ve never lived before
    Take risks, live the life of your dreams
    Every step you take is a journey
    Give your life everything you’ve got
    Believe that every mountain can be climbed, every obstacle overcome
    Make it the person you want to be”

    Every step is a journey, correct.
