Living a Full Life

"Don't be afraid to live a full life." ~ Michelle Morris 

Living a full life 
By Michelle Morris
01/03/2023

You may have the biggest heart
You may have the most amazing mind
But that won't make you invincible
Against the vulnerabilities of being part of humankind 

You can love with your whole heart
You can analyse with your intellectual highs
But that won't stop the fears or tragedies
Or the joy and peace in life

Living a full life 
Means being vulnerable
It means having the courage to try
Each and every time 

Living a full life
Means overcoming fear and regret 
Embracing every facet of the kaleidoscope
Of being a human being until death
