Life Taught Me....

LIFE TAUGHT ME .....

 

That if life wasn't like a roller coaster we'd all be bored.

 

To make the best of what you have, or suffer in your pity.

 

To never let go of hopes and dreams.

 

You'll never be knocked down so hard you can't get back up.

 

That in the end it's the family who checks the body bag. Cherish your kin.

 

That love will always, always surprise you.

 

That you must go through pain, to be in a place of happiness and worth.

 

That music is a powerful force.

 

That true friendships never die.

 

Too much of a good thing, can be bad, except church and hugs.

 

That children will always surprise you and your elders really do know things you don't.

 

That no matter your age the world will always seem big.

 

That I will never have all the answers.

 

That in the end good will win.

 

And that God was, is, and will always be there.

How uplifting - such beautiful words - thank you for the inspiration today. You are right both childre and the elderly certainly know much about how to live their lives that us caught in the middle seem to forget sometimes. There are so may lessons to be learned you have captured that yet there is always faith. Thank you.
Light,

How very true each of these life lessons are...this poem radiates truth and inspiration along with a love for life gained by living each and every day, learning each lesson one by one.

I sometimes forget that. Thank you for reminding me again.

Very uplifting for me right now. I like the way you put this down. Simple and truthful. This works for me.
Worthy to be on the wall.
Nice done miss!

A message of wisdom, poetically penned in truth and optimism. There is a saying that goes; 'When life brings you down to your knees, do not despair - for you are in the best position to say a pray!' He will be there to answer!

Excellent write.

This was very cheerful.
It's good we still have optimistic people
