Lessons About Life

The Bible taught me all things written between the covers of this book were true It said that there was a time to laugh and a time to cry It said there was a time to be born and a time to die Any question regarding life, search here and I would find the reason For all things important to life there would be a season Mom and Dad taught all the words found written above were true They taught me about sacrifice and honor, they said there more to life than just you When the time came to decide right from wrong, I must learn the right thing to do Soon I found a little kindness and charity would go a long way The things I decided, what I did and what I said, would matter some day Life taught me all the words found written above were true What no one told me was that life would be hard, a struggle all the way through Not all fun or play, I would often be left wondering what I should do All through life, never in words did any one share How difficult and meaningless would be the burdens I might bare You my love taught me all the words written above were true Life could be meaningless unless I found a purpose as I made our way through You gave me hope teaching me the meaning of life from a different point of view You taught me when all is said and done, only one thing matters at the end of the day You showed me that nothing is more important in life but to love, there is no greater way
