Life - Cherish the Day
As we awake from a slumber
Life begins to unfold
And what we do in those moments
Of course, Is yet to be known
Typically, we do what we value
Instinctually we repeat it our whole life
Sometimes it works in our favor
Sometimes it becomes our worst vice
So now we are here
Good or bad, it is so
Inquisitive, some seek out knowledge
Defeated, some would rather not know
The greatest cause of our suffering
Is our resistance to what is
You can accept life for what's happening
Or you can be miserable wishing you never lived
Life is truly indifferent
So try to accept whatever life brings our way
There will be joy and suffering
Life - an opportunity to cherish the day
