How is life a friend
That's so hard to figure out
How is life a soul
Always felt through the heart,
Love is so much of life,
Otherwise what is life without any love?
All the grumpy days of my life I sweep away,
All my happy days are just a thought away,
All my smiles are visible.
All my tears that I cry, all flow away
That is why I chose happiness.
I chose my own path
I chose to forget all of my days of pain
I look forward to life
To keep on smiling
To keep on going
To the heavens I look up
To thank God, for all I have
And all my misfortunes
I chose not to blame
All my faults I chose to accept.
All my skills I chose to develop.
For the rest of my life I chose to aim.
I will get stronger, through the years
I see life as a gift,
I see life as an opportunity
Many people try to miss.
I think bad is always there...
and we can help, but we can never
Prevent things from happening.
Bad is around... but it's not all
That should be thought about.
Smile at the sun.
Smile at the kids.
Look to the sky,
Breathe in the air,
And feel LIFE.
Feel your soul.
Learn to love and forgive.
Learn to be happy,
With nobody's help.
However, accept help, appreciate support.
All people give for you,
Do not take that for granted.
Don't dwell over what you don't have,
Or cannot be.
Don't dwell of what could be
What you have you have to appreciate
Otherwise life becomes a bore
Never satisfied, but
If to lose all you have right now
You'd feel misery
Surely because what you have
Should be loved, cherished and kept well
If somebody means a lot,
Let them know.
Our days together can be short.
Make most of all the chances,
All the moments that you get.
After all;
Shoulda, coulda, woulda
Are the last words of a fool.
