Lines of beauty and layers of devotion. Their very fast queries have come to demotion. Words that cannot be limited in any way. The evil has taken hold of my display. While others were piercing, some were kind. Most of them sounded like music to my mind. Both fair and unfair concepts could be found. However, the motion is now silent ground. The primary goal of life is not only to survive. But by doing so with enthusiasm and thrive. Worry does not rid the future of its sadness. Today is tiring, so look around for gladness.  The wealth of life is heightened by gratitude. God's price is reflected in a thankful attitude.

Powerful thoughts my friend. Words to live by: The primary goal of life is not only to survive. But by doing so with enthusiasm and thrive. Worry does not rid the future of its sadness. Today is tiring, so look around for gladness...

I particularly liked your concluding couplet and certainly agree with its message, Lasaad. "Look around for gladness," my friend.
