Antonyms of LifeA Poem by writingforfunReflections on the antonyms and anomalies of life loosely based on Jesus words 'What does it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?'Antonyms of Life. I collect my thoughts. I drop stupid ideas I lift my spirit. I empty my mind of clutter I fill my mind with peace. I leave all that is behind me I look forward to what's ahead. I'm deaf to criticism I hear fair-mindedness. I'm closed to dishonesty I'm open to truth. I shun bad company I welcome friendships. I refuse to be discouraged I accept life isn't perfect. I hate what is evil I love what is good. I fall in love I rise to greater heights I walk in humility I run triumphantly. I lose my life I gain eternity.
