LIFE IS PRECIOUS
by Uriah J. Fields → (All Poetry by Uriah J. Fields)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

Like flowers human beings appear,
wither, fade away and die.
The responsibility of the individual
for the period of life between birth
and death is what really matters,
Handling one's fragile life during
that period is the matter of this
statement.

Life is precious,
Without it nothing else matters.
Life is fragile,
It is subjected to many attackers
and devourers.
Ask yourself, What does my life
ultimately amount to?
Does your present condition affirm
your answer?
Take care of yourself, physically,
intellectually, emotionally and   spiritually
Live life fully in the present. That is sufficient for the future.
It does matter whether or not a person lives a short or long life.
If a short life is desirable or
preferable to a long life, why
not euhanize life in its infancy
or abort it in its embroyonic
stage?
The Good Book informs us that "The
length of our days are seventy
years - or eighty."
Why settle for less longevity
than you are constituted to
experience and promised?
Even though there are no guarantees,
a healthy and long life tends to result
from having a healthy lifestyle. 
Do all the good you can as long as
you can.
The longer you live with vibrancy
and good health, the more good you
can do for yourself and others.
Doing good is predicated upon being
good, that begins with being
good to yourself, i.e., being your own best fiend.
Being good to and for others is
a way of being good to yourself.
Life is precious.
Handle it with care.
Live it with beauty.

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
