~¢¾~WHO ARE YOU~¢¾~
You are not the color of your hair,
Nor are you the color of your skin.
It makes no difference short or tall;
Doesn't matter whether big or small.
You are not the car you own or drive;
Nor the clothes you choose to wear.
You might even have a disability
Which causes other people to stare.
True, we all look very different
Which helps us to know who is who
But, peel away the outer wrapping
And then you will find the "Real You".
You are the smile you give to all,
The kindness you show every day.
The helping hand you offer to another
When things don't go their way.
You are the one with kind words
When a friend is feeling so down.
You are the arms that offer a hug
Helping their sorrows to drown.
You are God's image in your soul.
And His love lives in the heart.
We are created with no two alike
Only so others can tell us apart.
Who we really are comes from within,
The things we believe, the things we do.
Nothing on the outside can tell us,
And only God knows the real YOU...
