Potential

Potential can't be measured

With a simple glance

No telling what is possible

If given half a chance

Latent gifts

In me abide

Aspirations

That I hide

Hoping, Praying

For the day

They're invited

Out to Play

There is potential

In your heart

Simply waiting

To be a part

What lies in you

What lies in me

Creates a sight

The world should see

So if your willing

Take my hand

And together

We will stand

Together let us

Run this race

And make this world

A better place

Potential is an untapped resource in many of us.  Too often we judge the people around us and ourselves based on looks, words on a paper, words of others or history.  What we don't always realize is potential can't be seen or measured by conventional methods.  Sometimes you don't realize your own potential or the potential of those around you until you are knee deep in a new situation.  Often times we let our past cloud the beauty of the possibilities that lie within us.  We perceive ourselves as broken or shattered. 

As you can see in the picture above each of the pieces of glass are unique and beautiful.  These pieces of glass are destined to be broken.  They are going to become a part of several different mosaic projects.  By being broken and combined with the pieces of others unique creations exist.  The pieces are put together in a way that can never be duplicated.

So if you are broken, it is time to grasp hope.  Now you can become an important part of something the world has never seen.
