 More is less

Less is more

Nonetheless

We don't know

We can't guess

Until we try

Until we see

With our own eyes

That there's more

To go around

Hoarding "stuff"

Being "tough"

To beat the odds

Of a tomorrow that 

May never come

Is a beaten road

A daunting deal

An ordeal

As we travell

From birth

To death

It becomes clear

That what we get

Is already set

No need to struggle

Inside our heads

Let the body

And the mind

Work for you

Kick back

And relax

Watch'em labour

As you ponder

The beauty

Of today...

Some good advice in this poem. I often wonder why people work so hard to gather all that "stuff" that they can't use and can't take with them.
