It Only Takes a Moment

It Only Takes A Moment
Written by: Jordonni 




It only takes a moment, 
To live your best life.
It only a takes a moment,
To take in all the smells, sights and sounds.
It only takes a moment,
To enjoy what life has to offer.
It only takes a moment,
So don't take life for granted,
For you have only one life to live,
And only one chance.
It only takes a moment,
To live life to it's fullest.
It only takes a moment,
To not judge people by what they do and say.
Because you want to be remembered
For the good things you say,
Not the bad things.

Love, love, LOVE this, Pamela. And it only takes a moment to lose a loved one, therefore we should keep the bad words at bay.
