The Puzzle of Life

Some see Life is a puzzle put together piece by piece. Each eventually fits together. like snowflakes, many slot beside one another quickly, but some seem like they take forever. With each new journey and new day, you add another piece to the puzzle. By the end of each month or at the turn of the year you turn back to see the picture, The painting on that canvas that we call life. With our back turned to the rest of the world we work tirelessly to make sure the puzzle is completed in an effort to impress those impressionable. We miss out on the leaves falling from the trees in the crisp air of the fall, The fresh cut grass as the spring spawns from the dark dreary winter Some fight tirelessly, to inlay the pieces as if they were creating a road by which to travel. Relax. Step Aside. Let the pieces fall together as you simply tag along for the ride Regardless of the moves you make, the pieces you choose, the path you take. All of the pieces are already in the box, 500 or 1000 pieces of a pre-determined fate.
