A living is not a life
We each need so much more
We need a life with purpose  
A life with more to explore

A living is not a life
But it often can be a gift
A means of sharing friendship
Not just a shared task list

A living is not a life
Without some laughs and joys
If you find that you’ve found both
Then a living can be enjoyed

--

You can't earn a life
You can't earn a true living
A life is given freely
So spend it freely giving

Spend your life wisely
Cos it can't be spent again
Invest it in the company
Of close family and friends

There's more to daily living
Than earning an honest crust
So select 'resignation'
And blow the family trust
