If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking
by Emily Dickinson
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
on that note, the encouragement project for caregivers in our area is forthcoming. we're meeting again tomorrow, 7/15, to write out some cards. e-mail me if you want the details (since we haven't yet decided where we're meeting).
