He Bought The Farm


Even during the least happy times in our lives It is never so unhappy that we should ever lose hope Whoever said, “Tomorrow is another day” Had the secret to a happy life Another is, “Don't sweat the small stuff” So simple yet so obvious, it make a whole lot of sense I don't have any secrets or special potions that I take But after living for almost 9 decades, there are certain things That make a whole lot of sense and a lot that don't It's knowing which is which and choosing The ones that your inner voice tells you To follow, it makes a hell of lot of sense! They say with age comes wisdom which is true to a degree But at any age, it's your inner voice That should always help you make the right choices
