Always Have a Dream

As I was going through my albums of before-the-digital pictures, I saw this poem by Amanda Bradley yellowing in between the pages:

Always Have A Dream

Forget about the days when it's been cloudy
but don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you've been defeated,
but don't forget the victories you've won.

Forget about mistakes that you can't change now,
but dont forget the lessons that you've learned...
Forget about the misfortunes you've encountered,
but don't forget the times your luck has turned.

Forget about the days when you've been lonely,
But don't forget the friendly smiles you've seen....
Forget about the plans that didn't seem
to work out right
But don't forget to always have a dream.

I see your smiles each time I read your blog and your comments. (Yes, oftentimes, I come back and read again.)
