When everything gets the best of you...
First place winner in Hummingbird Contest.

No matter what others may believe,
it’s better to give than to receive.
Whenever you feel you’ve nothing else to give,
ease up on yourself, and learn to live.

When the road looks dark and you feel alone,
know that you’re never on your own.
Search your heart, and follow its beat;
you’ll no longer feel the need to retreat.

Reach for the stars no matter where they may lead.
Never allow another to make your soul bleed.
Free your spirit and let love inside.
That’s where contentment and real peace reside.

No matter if others look past the real you,
believe in yourself and all you hold true.
So whenever you feel there’s no more to give,
ease up on yourself, and learn to live.
