Difference by Hannah Jackson (feel good novels TXT) 📖

something

for the first time

in my life.

That I am loved.

That I am sweet,

caring,

even beautiful.

Thank you for saving me

from a fate worse than death;

Thank you for saving me from

Emptiness.

Not Blood

They say

home is where the

heart is.

Home is where

your family is.

Where you love one another.

But what if you don’t have love?

What are you left with

in that big, cold building?

What is there

to live for?

All that remains

is a house

full of people

that simply happen

to be related.

That is not what a family

is.

A family

is a group of people

who love each other

who would die for each othe

rwho would give anything

to be with eachother.

It has nothing to do with blood.

Love is what keeps us going.

Not blood.

Love is what keeps us

alive.

Not blood.

And love is what fills our bodies

what pours out of out hearts

and keeps us going.

Not blood.

It has nothing

to do

with blood.

Little Things Like This

 

Hugs goodnight

kisses goodbye

ice-cream for dessert

with homemade pie.

 

Games after school

someone always winning

with the family on Christmas

add friends on Thanksgiving.

 

Incentives for good

Punishments for bad

making wishes on stars

for things you’ve never had.

 

Snowmen in the winter

with big sloppy smiles

everyone is laughing

and having fun all the while.

 

Love the good that you’re given

take the bad with a laugh

for you never know who

doesn’t have what you have.

 

Give what you can

it doesn’t matter how small

for a little is a lot

to those who have nothing at all.
