TELL ME

Tell me what Brings you Sorrow and I will show you what can Bring you Joy,

Tell me what Drives you Insane and I will show you what will Bring you Sanity,

Tell me your Worst Nightmares and I will tell you my Best Day Dreams,

Tell me what Causes your Despair and I will show you how to Live in Hope,

Tell me what Casts you in the Dark and I will Show You where you can find your Sun.

PLEASE TELL ME…

Tell me your worst Fears and I will show you Your Greatest Accomplishments,

Tell me why you Run from Opportunities and I will show You what you Missed Out On,

Tell me why you Live in a Box and I will show you Your Own Prison,

Tell me Why you Hate your Neighbour and I will show you the Mirror.

PLEASE TELL ME…

Tell me when you are Afraid to Stand Alone and I will show you an Eagle that Thrives Alone,

Tell me why you Hide in the Ashes and I will show You the Largest Fire that was Never Ignited,

Tell me your Greatest Desire and I will tell you about the Dream in Waiting,

Tell me your Darkest Moment and I will show you your Biggest Triumph,

Tell me of your Desire to be Known and I will show you the Unsung Heroes.

Always Remind Yourself That;

The Same Boiling Water that Hardens the Egg also Softens the Potato,

The Heat that Moulds Gold also Destroys Forests,

The Loaded Gun that Ends Lives also at Time Saves Them,

The Water that Builds Life also Rips it Apart.
