#3- A houseplant is dying. Tell it why it needs to live.
Dear Houseplant,
I see you have given up on living. Your leaves are yellowing and your vines are drooping. But my call to you is to ENDURE! Life is beautiful. If you go you will no longer feel the sun on your leaves. You will no longer reach heavenward with your branches. Your roots will no longer feel the warmth of the soil and be replenished by the water. You will not hear the sounds of our home or brighten our mantel. You have purpose. You are beautiful. Don't give up on living. Death is uncertain. Living is good.
Please remain with us.
Your loving family.

#1- What can happen in a second
Can the world change in a second? I believe it can.
In a second I could die
In a second I could feel love
In a second I could fall asleep
In a second I can give a smile
In a second I can take a bite of the best cheesecake
In a second I can blink
In a second I can say goodbye
In a second I can feel a breeze
In a second I can feel joy
In a second I can hear the Spirit
In a second I live and all those seconds make up my life!
In a second I could die

In a second I can feel a breeze
In a second I can feel joy
In a second I can hear the Spirit
In a second I live and all those seconds make up my life!
