We Are Like Glass

Glass is a reminder of the strength and fragility

that exists in every one of us.

Like glass, we are beautiful and luminous.

Like glass, we are fragile and shatter without care.

Like glass, we are also strong and powerful.

Like glass, we are reflections of our past.

Like the sands of glass, we can come together,

help each other, and accomplish amazing things.

Take care of the beauty and strength within yourself

and within everyone around you.
