LaJenna
Today I walked through old memories
hoping to find what I had lost
and bring them back home
What I found was peace
through the valley of tears.
I stood up
and I feared no evil
for I am not alone
for my creator told me
to be assured
he has not left me
alone on this earth
.yes
God never left me
He hand-picked friends for me
to give me comfort
and learn
and then one day
to help others in the same way.
I know
That is called
PAY IT FORWARD
Right
Reflection
Going through hard times people fear like pure evil itself, however, the right comfort can bring peace of heart and mind. Our creator knows what he is doing. He planted us where we are for many reasons. Our Virily friends are no accident either. I actually did not know why I decided to write on Virily. Sure, I enjoy writing, but I felt something drew me here for other reasons. I have always heard that coincidences are not accident. The people that we meet can learn from one another. I have learned that others have had sorrows just like I have suffered sorrows. I see many positive things from these people. They keep on inspiring others and bringing smiles along the way in spite of their sorrows they are suffering from. It seems as we grow older we grow more and more likely to suffer in some way or another, but we also can learn many things from our suffering. Then pass the learning on to your fellow man, that one day we may just call them all friends.
I want to thank God first of all for the friends he has sent me. I love all my Virily friends. There’s a few that have helped in more ways than one. They are Carol DM, Albert Herdianto Widjojo, Kim_Johnson, lacho59, Alex Ledante. I know I am forgetting many, but just know that you are special to all of your readers in many ways
Carol DM has suffered in many ways about different things, and she has taught me how to still see the beauty of this world. She gives us beautiful sunsets to look at. Her posts always leave me inspired in one way or another. Thank you Carol DM!
Albert Herdianto Widjojo brought art into my life in a special way. I learned that all drawings have a story to tell, and I am learning how to find out their meanings.
Alex Ledante has taught me through his drawings to stand up, and not let life defeat me. His female drawings show strength within themselves. I needed to learn how to carry on through the tragedies that I have faced. Feeling beautiful starts from feeling beautiful from within, then the outside can truly shine with unstoppable strength. Thank you Alex!
Kim_Johnson has been making me smile each and every day by leaving humor behind through her daily writing. Now, I would like to tell Kim to keep on cheering all her readers up with her great humorous style. She has helped me turn many frowns into smiles.
lacho59 tends to leave me feeling like I want to learn more about this world. She writes about so many different things, and that alone has taught me to explore many different things within my writing and my life. She is a kind and thoughtful person. Her writing always makes me reflect on one way or another. Thank you lacho59!
Thank you one and all for reading this post. I hope I have shined a little hope into your lives. Remember, God has not left you alone to drown in your sorrows. He may just send you a friend or two.

Thank you Radica for the nice comment.
This is so beautiful!! It’s true what you say, I don’t believe in coincidence at all, it is all part of a master plan. Thank you for sharing this piece of light.
Thank you Della for sharing your thoughts.
Friends are the most precious of what we have in this world. Yes, it’s good to know that what ever you go through you are not alone.
Thank you Pamela for your thoughts.
That is true that all of us should see the bright side of life and not dwell on the negatives.

Lovely poem!! Authentically expressed from the heart. Its admiral to pay homage to friends. and of course there is contentment knowing one’s purpose having being grounded in their faith
Thank you Bradley Tremmil for your compliment and thoughts.
It is gratifying that my work speaks to you. My women are strong because they have been informed by women like you!
Thank you Alex for helping me get in-tuned with my inner self more. I have always had to be the strong one through it all. Sometimes I feel weak, but then I think of some of your drawings, and I feel like I will not ever be defeated
You have the heart to persevere, so you only need to find the strength to do so. You’re lucky, some folks really have to try…
And I thank you dear friend. I saw in your two nice eyes the urge to fight and win. Good always beats. It gives us wings to go forward with hand-to-hand friends.
Thank you for that compliment. Your eyes says to me that you have had a lot of experience and much to tell us all
Be blessed dear. Greetings from Solar Torrevieja. Let the light of the sun shine on your way.
Wow LaJenna, you brought tears with your thoughtful words. I am so glad you have found inspiration. There are tons of people here who have helped me and don’t even know it.
Thank you for making me smile today. Every smile is worth something, and you help many of us smile daily.
You are very welcome my friend, I hope you are doing better.
Such a wonderful post! I’m happy to see people who are making real friends here on Virily!
Your a a great friend, said I probably missed some of my favorites. You are one!
I was touched by this sincerity. And when my name is written here, I’m on my knees to be thankful that part of my life still has a meaning for my friend.
I have found out that God gives us friends from all over if we look hard enough.
I totally agree with that
Thank you for visiting. I appreciate it!
With a good friend you are never alone………..
