I love my life. I have no regrets so far, for everything I have done I have done out of love. Friends may come and go, but each friend had brought to me a value that is so precious that he/she knows that I will treasure the memory forever in my heart.

Poem Title: My Life

Sometimes I wonder about my life:

Had I lived my life in another way
would I have turned out to be another person?

But through the good times and the bad
I saw myself becoming the person that I am
and though I may not be at the top of the world
Or that perhaps in your eyes I may not be the best friend or person
Yet, I am proud of who I am!

So I think
If I had to live my life all over again...

Making the same mistakes that I had made
conquering all those obstacles of big and small
Like a hard-headed crab warrior on a sandy shore
walking this way and that way...
Left, right, turn!
Forward, backward, turn!
Clearing off little sand pebbles and rocks
along my path,
Fighting off high and low tides
along the way.

Rejoicing at every success I've made,
marvelling at all those happiness of big and small
Like a soft-hearted angel in a fairyland
flying here and there...
Left, right, turn!
Forward, backward, turn!
Writing joyful words of love in my poetry
Singing songs of happiness through my words.
Remembering times of beautiful past and present.

No, I don't think I would have chosen to live my life over
in any other ways, for

I love my life!! I love me!!

I AGREE FROM THIS PERSPECTIVE; WHATEVER HAS TRANSPIRED IN MY LIFE, GOD HIMSELF WAS ALWAYS, ALWAYS THERE! SO, I AM LIVING THE LIFE THAT HE HAS ALLOWED AND FOR THAT I AM ENTIRELY GRATEFUL. THUS, I LOVE MYSELF, THROUGH HIM, WHO HOLDS MY HAND. THIS SHARING CAUSED ME TO STOP AND THINK, WELL DONE AND ENJOYED. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

Stunning celebration of self and of a life-path's acceptance to the point of appreciation. Singing happiness through your words -- and that you include physical art imagery also; what better food to offer children than this, Sandie. This poem brings in the human struggle (hard-headed crab warrior) that sculpts us into being....and brings in the recognition of our 'being,' as you express in "Rejoicing at every success I've made," . There is so much universal identity here, so again....marvelous material for hearts and minds. ~~ Diana

Wonderfully written. And so positive letting that inner light come to life through your words. Living a life of no regrets is something we should always strive for and teach our children. Enjoyed reading this.
