Analysis of Treasure your family

Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)



when I look at what's ahead of me
I feel that life can be scary sometimes.
it might go our way in a lot of ways.
or our lives just keep passing us by

I really feel that we need to step back.
to learn to appreciate what lies ahead of us.
we truly don't know what tomorrow will bring.
but we should make the best of everything.

you should always appreciate your family.
they should be loved and trusted over others.
but there are just some family members.
that you just can't fully trust with your heart

I feel as if some days I just try and try.
but I feel it's never good enough anymore.
no matter what or how I feel deep inside.
please always cherish the ones you love
