This life is but a journey
Of which lessons must be learned
Before our cup is empty
Our final glory
To be earned
Opportunities set before us
To allow us all to shine
No restrictions on our choices
We have a designated time
It doesn't really matter
If you are rich or poor
But how we treat our fellow man
Reflects the consequence
We endure
So smile at the stranger
You pass on a busy street
Welcome all who ask of comfort
Be kind to all you meet
Do not judge with hatred
Or turn your back on those in need
Show a heart of warmth~compassion
Shine
***
Like a light
Through word and deed .............
