My Destiny In Life

Loneliness leads to searching,

While searching shifts to looking,

Looking then leads to thinking,

From thinking comes the thoughts.

Thoughts then become feelings,

The feelings become urges,

The urges transform to words. 

The words move into action,

My actions lead into my habits, 

The habits become a pattern,

The pattern becomes a trait,  

The trait adds to my qualities, 

The qualities outline my character, 

My character leads to my destiny in life. 

My destiny in life is to love you, 

Totally and endlessly...forevermore.
