A Purpose

EACH LIFE HAS A PURPOSE,
                         EACH PURPOSE A PLAN',
                         TO DO WHAT THEY CAN
                        THROUGH TROUBLES OR SORROW
                       EACH TRAIL ON LIFE"S WAY
                            A PURPOSE FOR LIVING
                               A TEST YOU MUST MEET
                           ACCEPTING EACH CHALLENGE,
                             THE BITTER, THE SWEET...
                            AS HEARTACKES THE CEASE
                               RISE ABOVE ENDLESS FEARS
                                 WIPE AWAY HURTFUL TEARS,
                                  TO A LIFE THATS
                                               WORTHWHILE.

Inspiring write Maria! At times we ask what's our reason for existing but we forget that each one of us makes a contribution in life. Nicely penned.
