j here is a landscape larger than the one within our view |rwe can only look beyond
the old to find tne new, |r we can understand each day
that time is on our side... ~]nat with a little effort, hope can help to turn the tide... f=or there is a landscape larger than the one which we can see Where the sun is shining brighter and true joy waits patiently.
