The temporary person


You are compassionate. You are kind. You are caring and loving, and wanted and funny. Your friends tell you you're helpful, and SMART! They admire your hard work. They appreciate your heart! And the feelings inside? They don't define you. They're for someone who is alone, and afraid to move on. They're for a temporary person, and she is still learning to appreciate herself. You are not alone, and you are more than temporary. You have those who love you, those who listen, those who appreciate, and those who care. And they will always invest their time in you. Those feelings, are only temporary.
