A Quarter of a Century

Lost in misery Swimming in guilt Bewildered with emotions Vulnerability is a given Patience is running out... A quarter of a century is near Happiness is bliss Loneliness is sorrow Lust is temptation Love is genuine Life is unknown... A quarter of a century is near Eternity is forever Escape is unreal Freedom is granted Success is confidence Anything is possible... A quarter of a century is near Live your life Happiness is within reach Love is in sight Make it a reality Be optimistic... A quarter of a century is near Know thyself I am who I am No one else is me The glass is half full Brace yourself... A quarter century is here

Hold on to the one abiding truth, the fourth line in the second stanza. "Love is genuine" It is the central truth to the abiding light. Sincerely, Love, Moses
