LIFE: That’s what it’s all about

Life - That's what it's all about

LIFE

It’s making something out of nothing,

It’s seeing optimism in the air,

It’s embracing the most impossible,

And the taking your own dreams by the dare.

 

Life, that’s what it’s all about,

Life, with all its slings and arrows,

Life, the living, loving, sharing, caring,

And accepting folks with the robins, wrens and sparrows.

 

Life is never giving up,

Life is empathy, compassion,

Life is the giving of yourself in helping others,

And even some joyful acts of compulsion.

 

Life is making something when you have nothing,

Despite all its troubles harrow,

Life is the revelling in joyful acts,

Faith and devotion, and walking the path that’s narrow.

By H. W. Bryce
