A Good and Full Life Lived

In regards to life

Try your best along your way

To be respectful and kind to others

Lend a helping hand out where and when and if you can to those deserving of it

And love your family 1st and foremost before all else

Because not only did they grant you birth and bring you into this world

Provide you with siblings and an extended
support network as back up 

In your head and heart you know what
love is and it is to love 

But they are also truly all you have of
value in this world worth having after all
is said and done

And home is where the heart is and 
far more precious 

Than all the gold and wealth in the this
here known world 

You will truly miss whence eventually
you depart and leave this world behind
