For Richer or Poorer...?

Both...

we hope and work for a richer life than we currently have

AND

we pray and give hope to those who we feel are poorer.

-------------------------------------------------------
A Proud Moment:

My proudest ever "richer/poorer" moment was saving a couple thousand dollars in grade six from helping the school stamp textbooks and working a couple of paper routes, and then helping my father pay off the mortgage on the modest condo our family had lived in, and had the opportunity of buying a couple of years after coming to Canada, as refugees with naught a penny to our names.

Stardust

Sprinkle some stardust over me
For I want to shine, shine, shine!
Sprinkle them stardust, busy bee
It is my moment, mine, mine, mine!

Stardust falling, flake after flake
Starry eyed, I dance, dance, dance!
Stardust calling, my stage to take
Applause, applause, fans, fans fans!

A bow to stardust, twinkling above
A look up to the sky, sky, sky!
I love you stardust, nothing but love
You give me power to fly, fly, fly!

I Believe

I'll be what I live
I Believe

I'll be how I live
I Believe

I'll be where I live
I Believe

I'll be when I live
I Believe

I'll be who I live
I Believe
