A soft breeze blows leaves across the ground. The gentle, steady thrumming of my heart in my chest, my ears hear everything And my eyes see all but it is as though I am watching...

&quot;For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness, For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people, For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry, For Beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day, For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Audrey Hepburn
