Life Is a Vacation

Life is a big vacation
live in the moment
let it grow and flower
let it transcend all barriers
be happy always
your only responsibility is
to be happy
only 
by
living here in the moment
you can extend it
you will be compassionate then
helping the next person should
be our goal,
it is so easy, intrinsically
yet we make it complicated
life is a beautiful vacation
believe
whisper to the trees, kiss the souls
wipe the tears,kill the ego
then
you wont be afraid
afraid to go back 
afraid to go forward
aimlessly into the unknown
the eternity, blissfully
be detached in attachments
be ready to die this moment
without any regrets
get prepared to die next moment
without any care
set goals to die the following hour
attachments should not be possessive
love shouldnt be a bondage
possess the moment, not the land
embrace the people not the power
live in the moment like a child
and
you are beautiful
