Live Any Other Way

Bright colors purples, oranges with gold Float on clouds up in the evenings sky Brings a warmth taking away my cold Along with unanswered questions "why" Birds cry out in natures budding trees The crickets will chime into this choir If magnificent beauty I see This sight I swear I would never tire As long as beauty I see I feel Life will some day again be alright Fate not to be predetermined or sealed If I can see a distant white light Then if a happiness I never find I'll at least go through life being ok See still my heart and soul will be kind Life no one should live any other way

With your attitude, confident you will go through lifeO.K. Brenda, I, just today, 6 months later learned you gave me a #2 first place gold In you Kindness contest. I didn't know that until a few hours ago. Forgive me for not showing my sincere gratitude earlier. I try to give a scriptural witness and build other up with my joy in life. Thank YOU!

Well done for coloring your life with a positive attitude, Brenda! We try to achieve what we long for, but if unattainable, then we can still settle for whatever fate has to offer; nature would surely be willing to give us a helping hand! # Warm regards // paul
