You want to make a difference. So you choose a career that will shape the future of others.

 

Your goal, help them uncover . . .

 

 

Life’s Mystery

 

My future bright, I headed down my chosen path,

One that would make a difference in the lives of those I faced.

A teacher of young children, I’d make things happen, as I knew I could.

The time had come—the beginning of the school year and my heart raced.

 

I had to be strong and take control.

Face them with pride, it was the only way.

Taking a deep breath, I held my head high.

The words would flow; I knew what to say.

 

Entering the room, they stared at me.

I wanted to run, but knew I must stay.

My inner self trembled, but my outer being remained calm.

If I couldn’t maintain my cool, there’d be a huge price to pay.    

 

I was the one who’d been chosen to change their lives.

My words would mold their future—paint a picture of what could be.

In a melodious voice, I captured their hearts and embraced their minds.

All, my children, I would teach how to uncover life’s mystery.

There are a lot of “what ifs” in life. They make us think.

Was it meant to be? Just ask . . .

 

 

What If?

 

What if the sun didn’t shine?

What if children didn’t play?

What if workers didn’t work?

What if preachers didn’t pray?

 

What if teachers didn’t teach?

What if choirs didn’t sing?

What if painters didn’t paint?

What if bells didn’t ring?

 

What if people didn’t care?

What if doctors didn’t treat?

What if lovers didn’t love?

What if we didn’t meet?

 

What if dreams didn’t fade?

What if voices didn’t say?

What if seasons didn’t change?

What if hope didn’t stay?
