Life Is Short

Do we follow or lead?

Do we ask or do we give?

Are we self indulgent?

Or too restrictive?

 

Life is what we make it.

We add or subtract to it.

Believe me, we do make a difference.

Good or bad, you decide.

 

Let the oceans seek the shores.

Let us solve our problems

Without having to go to wars.

Life is too short, let us  live it to the full.

This posting makes one think, intelligent and thoughtful it is...-e-
