REPRISE by Alexander If only I had had the chance to feel this way before, So much of what I missed would have come clear. My eyes now see with clarity the joys I have in store, To live this life so precious and so dear. From all that I have learned before, it could not ever reach, The value of what now I hold inside. The greatest lesson of them all, the one you cannot teach, The beauty of a life that has not died. A past I leave behind me, somewhat tattered, torn apart, So many fearfull questions laid to rest. No matter what does lie ahead, I know within my heart, Each day that I awake will be my best. To still remain here standing, whilst so many others fell, To play a part in all that life can give, A story oh so precious, near impossible to tell, Is something that inspires me more to live, So let the future come to me, reveal your secrets all, No longer shall I dwell upon the past, My purpose is to make most of the choices left to me, And live each day as if it were my last...

Yes! No one should live in the past for it has already gone and not can be done about it. No one should live in the future either because it has not occurred yet, and it never will. The old saying, "live in the moment" fits here. Nice write! I am looking forward to more. Welcome to passions!
