"Give more than you take… live as if it is your last day and love fully, with each breath… and intentionally, with a love that God will assuredly bless" – Quote by Poet


Listen to the sound
  Of your heart’s yearning
Listen to it pound
  A flame of light burning

Grace calls through the wind
  Singing praises on a breath of hope
Silencing the shadows, resigned
  To erasing the pain so hearts cope

Laughter falls from the soul
  Who dreams, believes and feels
Brighter than those who console
  With joy that kindness reveals

Songs of inspiration fall gently
  On tender hearts who love freely
Music bleeding affections contently
  Warming spirits with passion ideally

Hues of carefully designed prayers
  Arouse blessings that fall down from God
Sweet miracles of serenity which shares
  Brilliant insights from the One we applaud

Creativity lights up the life who knows
  His way is always the best way to go
Lighting the mind with poetry and prose
  Shaped by those who feel His love flow

With my heart and mind brought alive
  By the fiery flames from His gift
Of grace that abides and will revive
  Tenderness born of joy which will lift

My philosophy is a blend of faith
  Hope and love that comes from above
Brought to life by the word He saith
  In blessedness we can barely speak of

With all my heart, mind and soul
  I long to contribute to this earth
A smile, a thought, a light – beyond control
  Trembling with wonder like the virgin birth

With all of me, I blow a kiss to the sun
  Who beckons me to see and receive
Love on the air, in the seas and in the Son
  Who brings new life to those who believe

A lovely poem to back up the amazing quote you came up with. Hmmm, I fear MY personal motto is going to be shallow by comparison!
