| | | Beatitudes for Those With Special Needs
Blessed are you who take the time
to listen to difficult speech
for you help me to know that if
I persevere I can be understood.
Blessed are you who never bid me to "hurry up" and
take my tasks from me and do them for me,
for I often need time rather than help.
Blessed are you who stand beside me
as I enter new and untried ventures,
for my failures will be outweighed
by the times I surprise myself and you.
Blessed are you who understand
that it is difficult for me,
to put my thoughts into words.
Blessed are you who with a smile,
encourage me to try once more.
Blessed are you who never remind me,
that today I asked the same question two times.
Blessed are you who respect me
and love me just as I am,
and not like you wish I were. |
