Your life is a grand journey...
For some it is short
and over before they try.
For others it's long lasting
filled with laughter, joy and pain.

But which ever way You go...
You had better use Your brain !
Do not trust in Yourself or others,
only in GOD and His everlasting love.

Strive for perfection...
and do the best that You can do !
Look twice and don't believe
all You see or hear.

Do not be dumb and selfish...
help others each and every day.
Speak of love and truth,
life is what we say !

Seek treasures in Heaven...
do not live in greed or sin.
Take time to give GOD thanks,
for beauty and wonders You take in.

Have fun along the way...
don't waste a single day
Enjoy your journey...
fore we shall not pass again this way.
