As I stop and reflect,
I begin to see,
all the beauty
thats all around me.

I've experienced
the good, as well as
the bad,but I'm grateful
for all the experiences
I've had.

For without such things
the soul doesnt learn,
the lessons it chose
before it was born.

To walk thru this
life with a purpose at hand,
with dignity and grace,
the best that one can.

For the time will come,
when this life has
ended, so treasure all of life,
as it was intended.
