Lessons from Life

Lessons from Life

Bring out the Emotion
With Joy and Tears
For without it we do not have the Human Condition

Take out the Trash
For with it we reek of Decay and Rot
And without it we smell of roses and lavender

Throw out all Bad Habits
And live life free of Guilt and Shame
Because life goes on with or without

Bring on the Troubles
For we need to see the Thorns
In Hiding or Secret the Thorns can Deflate

Take on the Challenges
For life to be fulfilled
We need to be reminded that life is worthwhile

Throw caution to the wind
And live every day like it is your last
But plan ahead for a rainy season

Bring the good times to the present
As the present is the only time we have
The future is unpredictable and the past is history

Take up the offer of someone you love
And watch the perks unfold
Just like a daily joyride

Throw out bad memories from your heart
And watch as the day sparkles
For good times are worth remembering

Many may scoff, jibe and ridicule
But if your heart can forgive
And your mind can absorb and release
Then no matter the issues
Survival is individual and lasting
None can point
And none can pinpoint
For it is in ourselves only
To make someone feel special
And loved
A feeling that is as powerful as the sunlight on our face
And the rain on our back.
