Remember what’s important in life during tough times
Editor:
Tough times? Maybe, maybe not. Some lessons are learned so to live at peace no matter what. For me, a gratitude list of all the things that I do have.This poem shows one way how to do it. It is called “The Journey.”
In one’s life long journey one can see,
A long highway with many pot holes and rocks on the way,
Ones that are small or as big as they can be,
On my own what kind of ride was I having or even enjoying,
The road was hard and bumpy it was the vehical I was employing,
Hardly an enjoyment with me at the wheel as gears were grinding,
Broken down at the side of the road and out of gas I was finding,
I called for help in which I found that I needed it bad.
Complaining about this or that always made things more sad,
Then help came from above and to me a new smooth vehical was given.
A brand new ride from the universe,the best that I’ve ever driven.
