LifeA Poem by MariaLife.
Life.
Breath. Heart beat. Life, being into existence. Beginning, end, no in between. The first gulp of air, to the very last breath. Life, valued, molded, taken care of. Cherished moments, memories, growth. Maturity and Aging. Expanding, spreading. Beliefs, challenges, trials. Pain, heartache, sickness, and sadness. Love, nourished, disciplined, prepared. Friendship, family, loved ones, earth. Life, is complicated. Trivial at its worst. Yet in the end, its not all wary, if you hold on to the Light. That Light, or Supreme being, you might define in more than one way. Each concept, differs yet all in all, would you believe that there is One or Something, that does exist within this life and this universe, that is both greater and wiser, than us human beings? In the end, we are free, to believe or not believe in anything other, that that which is good or evil. For as we are, each being upon this earth is no more perfect than his or her neighbor. For we all commit mistakes, and make wrong choices, and in the end, we are what we reap and sow. Hatred, differences, minimizing, and or boasting, does not lead us anywhere, but to war, and crimes, and murder. Can we choose to disagree yet at the same, time focus on the good things, that we each have. Family, Friends, no matter the color, no matter the race, for underneath, we all have the same type of organs, regardless, of your skin tone, and or physical appearance. To hate is easy, yet in the end, the only one who suffers more is the one whom hates the other. To blame, is easy and seek revenge, is what we most want and in many ways it may be even justifiable, but who is to say, what is truth the sole truth, in all this crisis... I am weak, and I am less than perfect, made mistakes and might not meet many criteria or standards. yet in the end, I strive each day, to do good, to help others, to love and forgive even if I am not forgiven or loved or accepted as I am. For who am I to judge, we all fall short in so many ways. Yet we could choose to just live our lives and await death, and from then what... If we could love and treat others as we like to be treated, would that make a difference even now? It should, for we all have had troubled pasts, and or hardships, that end up molding us, in different ways. Life is short in many ways, but what should we take from living and doing.. Life, comes and goes, and no one knows when his or her time will end, but why not make the best of it, no matter what life throws back at you...
