If you would lift me up, you must be on higher ground
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Today, I will smile because it will brighten your day
Today, I will laugh because it will be music to your ears
Today, I will listen a little more because my silence will give you room to grow
Today, I will be on higher ground than I was yesterday,
 and I will lift you up!
And tomorrow, I when I must reach up to find the higher ground
I know that you will be there 
and that's poetiquejustis
, “‘Love the 
Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all 
your strength and with all your mind’;   and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself."  Luke 10:27
