Equipping Us With Tools Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Silence is golden, yet laughter is the glitter of life,
keeping it on the lighter side where it is easier to
contend with.

Beauty comes from seeing the humorous side, fulfilling
it's presence even in difficult and emotional times of
stress.

Removing us from the intensity of feelings and emotions,
equipping us with tools we need to stay calm, focusing
on the task at hand.

Especially in times of extreme tenseness, like when a
loved one is in the hospital on life support, being
very important in that situation.

Knowing because that's what I'm dealing with now, loving,
praying BEing here, no matter what may happen, that's all
I can do and I'm doing it as well as I possibly can.
