For this week's theme we have "Tocando Almas" in English, this means: "Touching Souls." What an awesome idea you got there @digitalopus. I choose the song Greatest Love of All which is originally sung by Whitney Houston. For me this piece means a lot, the message conveys that it encourages all of us to not forget to love ourselves first in order for us to spread it. I also hope that this song touches not only your hearts but also your souls for you to be able to express how you really feel. I know a lot of people are experiencing struggles at the moment, some might be on their silent battle and some are trying their best to survive. Please know that you are not alone and that you need to know your worth for people to see you and appreciate you more. You are beautiful more than you can imagine. As they say, you can't give what you don't have, so always remember to fill yourself with love so as it spills out other people can feel it too, not only because you are being selfish but because you know your worth.
I am sending love and prayers to all the people who needs it right now.
Here's the lyrics of the song, so you can sing it with me:
I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride to make it easier Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be Everybody searching for a hero People need someone to look up to I never found anyone who fulfill my needs A lonely place to be And so I learned to depend on me I decided long ago Never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I'll live as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself It is the greatest love of all I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride to make it easier Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be I decided long ago Never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I'll live as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself Is the greatest love of all And if, by chance, that special place That you've been dreaming of Leads you to a lonely place Find your strength in love
