TO LIVE...

It shouldn't really matter,
half empty, half full,
but rather to work,
at making it WHOLE.

To live is to see light,
in all that is dark.
To find peace amongst the silence.
To love a broken heart.

To see the truth,
behind a lie.
To savor life,
not just let it pass by.

To learn the reason,
behind a tear,
instead of just worrying,
about wiping it clear.

To give a smile,
to those who are sad.
To laugh a little,
before you get too mad.

To stop and think,
before you begin.
To lose a couple,
before you win.

Rain or Shine.
Hugs 'N Kisses or burns.
Slow down sometimes,
enjoy life's twists and turns.

Find completeness.
Give it your best try.
Be open and forgiving,
Live before you Die!

"When you came into this world everyone around you was smiling & you were crying. Live life so that when you leave this world everyone is crying & you are the one smiling!!"

WOW.......this is soooooo true!!! Words that I have tried to find for so long. No need to dwell on the bad. Sift through it, find the good, and work from that. It's not hard to find the good if you just look. The bad will always be around to come back to try to make it's way in to life so why not work on that part that is good from the bad? Harboring bad just makes things bad for yourself, but it doesn't stop there...it's that for all around you, too. I LOVED this!!! So warm, and open to look for the good, and make things a positive.!!!!! Lovely!

Thank you SharaRose for such a kind reply--I'm glad you found meaning in this!! Most of my stuff means nothing to others, but it means the world to me!!
