Day 6A: Chapter 12 Development of Self and Social Understanding

There is a special place in life, that needs my humble skill, A certain job I'm meant to do, which no one else can fulfill The time will be demanding, and the pay is not too good And yet I wouldn't change it for a moment -- even if I could There is a special place in life that I was meant to fill A sunny spot where flowers grow, upon a windy hill There's always a tomorrow and the best is yet to be, And somewhere in this world, I know there is a place for me There is a special place in life, that only I may share, A little path that bears my name, awaiting me somewhere. There is a hand that I must hold, a word that I must say, A smile that I must give for there are tears to blow away There is a special place in life, a goal I must attain, A dream that I must follow, because I won't be back again. There is a mark that I must leave, however small it seems to be, A legacy of love for those who follow after me A Place For ME
