The Good Life

Good or bad, hard, or soft and easy, it's life, live it with a hope!

 

 

The good life

It can come quickly

It can go swiftly

 

It’s quite slippery

It’s fragile and sleazy

 

The good life

Has no favorite

It’s an up and down

 

It secures no stability

Nor lasting sociability

 

It comes and it goes

For some it’s a woe

 

That’s the good life

It has no favorite

It’s an up and down

 

All is not clear

Life seems unfair

 

Many are living slight

Others are living right

 

That’s the good life

It has no favorite

It’s an up and down

 

Married or single

Strong or weak

Live life peaceable

 

Big or small

Live it carefully

Live it cheerfully

 

For the good life

Has no favorite

It’s an up and down

I was reminded of Willie Nelson's song that became BB King's theme song. What defines the "good life" varies depending upon one's perception. But you are right in saying that every life has its ups and downs.

being in favour of life or disgrace, all people are equally getting a stress. To be in favour is the same as being in a low position of disgrace: the getting that favour (a promotion) is stressful and the losing it is stressful as well. On the other hand, it is also said that above all other cares people care of their personal hazard. They use to do it so seriously, as if they treat a severe disease. If I am a man who gets a disease, it is only because of my having the body; if I have not my body, what kind of disease can come then to me? So, we all compel to deal with our bodies, in the direct way (body-body) and indirect (soul-body) to keep them together till the end. Good lyrics. Cheers, alex
