What is Life

What is Life

A Story by Elyse
"

the title pretty much explains itself

"

What is life? Is it a game that we all must play to win? Having to be ready for what lies around the corner? Will the moves you make put you in harms way, or will they protect you? The choices we make define who we are. You can never be too careful. The roads we take will either lead us to where we want to go, or down a path never intended for us. Expect the unexpected. Watch your path. Be aware of where it leads you. You must be ready at all times. Sword's drawn, eye's and ears alert. Standing guard for the arrows that fly by day. You never know were they will come from, but if you see one, don't run. It may chase you. Fight it off. Pull up your shield, and cover your heart. You must always protect it. You will lose the game if you do not fight. If you don't fight, you don't play. You don't play, you don't live. So take a step and play. Do you want to miss the adventures that will come your way? Don't just sit back and wait for nothing. Make it happen. Make a move. Listen to your heart and be ready. Take a step in the direction your heart is pointing and go. Be certain that want you want, you will be willing to fight for, to keep. Make sure that you have what you need by keeping the right people in your life. They will either help keep you standing, or they will take you down. One minute they will be your friend, the next an enemy. Trust to a certain extent. You can never fully trust anyone. The Keeper of your heart is who you should rely on and trust at all times. He is the power in the swing of your sword; He is the strength in your heart, and the breath in your body. Keep Him with you at all times, and you will never fail. Yes, you may fall and pain will come, but only for a moment. Healing comes with strength. And when you win, the reward is never ending.

Great job. This is oh so true in everything it talks about. Welcome to writerscafe. I believe that if you continue to think analytically like this you will do very well on here. You should write poetry with this type of in depth thinking. Enjoy your future at writerscafe.

In times when there's no one else to talk to, my pen goes to work and I start explaining everything that's on my heart to the paper. Silly I know, but it has gotten me through so much. Unfortunately m.. more..
