Life does not ask
From any man
But this; to do
The best he can
***
Fulfillment comes each day we live
Not by what we amass, but give
***
It is not those without visual sight
Who are truly and dubiously blind
But those who seek without delight
For things they never find
***
I searched for joy
And it found me
When I learned to live
Thankfully
***
We all are human
And must admit
That the best of us
Are hardly fit
To point and judge
Of us, the worst
We ought to examine
Ourselves first
***
Sometimes you try to tell me how you feel
Forgive me for not listening
Now, how I long to reach to you and steal
The un-shed tear sadly glistening…
***
Don’t sugar-coat the truth or lies
Both are immune to its disguise
***
Our children are taught
Not just by what they’re told
They learn with keen perception
By what they behold
Wise, wise words. Thanks for sharing them.
