You

I found this poem that Melinda had written to me when I was having a difficult time in my life. I am so thrilled that I found it and can reflect on our friendship that has been going on for about 14 years now. I believe that this poem is true for everyone and had to share. Hopefully it touches you the way it has touched me.

You
You are truly the only person controlling you
You are the one who can make your own decisions
You are the one who feels your feelings
You are the one making yourself get out of bed in the morning
You are the one giving love from your heart and from your heart only
You are the one who makes yourself happy
You are the one who makes yourself want to enjoy life
You are the one who makes yourself smile on a rainy day
You are the one controlling your tears, your fears, and your emotions
You are the one in charge of you
You are the one who dreams your dreams
You are the one who sets goals for yourself
You are the one who achieves those goals for yourself
You are the one who you can count on and rely on
You are the one who experiences sadness in yourself and happiness in others
You are the one who deserves everything you want in life
You are the one who GOD loves for being you
You are the one GOD chose to make into you
You are the one who loves yourself the most
You are the one who needs to be able to control yourself in times of frustration
You are the one who gets angry with yourself for forgetting things
You are the one who gets frustrated at yourself for doing rediculous things
You are the one and only you are the one who controls your emotions and the anger that builds up inside of you
You are the one think in your life that you should never let down
You are the one who should love yourself and everything you do for yourself
You are you and you need to love you no matter what you think
You are a meaningful person and a kind person~you give from your heart, your mind and your soul
You are a friend I am glad to have and I cherish our friendship in every way
You are the one I know I can count on and you are the one I feel comfortabole talking to
You are you and I like you for the laughs and the giggles we share
You have a special place in my heart and I am glad for our friendship
You are meaningful to others that surround you
You are a wonderful person
You are you and I am honored to be a part of your life

With all my heart and soul,
Melinda
