Live To Give

Live to give and not merely to exist. Bettering someone else's life with a memory or a tip. Seeing beyond yourself to bring about peace of mind to better someone else's situation with a little of your time. Live to give and not merely to exist. \Learning to choose your fights wisely and not for the sake of spite but for honor, pride and dignity to live a peaceful life. Live to give and not merely to exist for the importance of life will surely pass you by if you don't try and just plan on getting by. You won't have anything to give unless you sacrifice pieces of your life. \A selfish man does things his way with no regard to others for his mission is to exist for himself and in himself he lives to exist.

Hello Kellie, a wise poem. I wish life was easy, and we could just get by with no worries. However life does not work in that manner. I've learned to be a very giving person... even if one is selfish and does not give back... it's the nature of life right! enjoyed your poem, and mail. I hope you learn to navigate this site.. your friend SKAT
