My Words of Wisdom I Suppose

people say we need to live life to the fullest
but why does that mean getting drunk and taking drugs sleeping around and waking up in a 
different place?

some people say taking drugs makes the pain go away
some people say drinking numbs the pain
but why do people think this way???

now i say yeah live life to the fullest but appreciate the things around us
let go of the past and look forward to the future cause theres more for us to come
life has just began.
you dont need drink and drugs to have fun.

get high on life just like me

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
