Pages Set In Stone

And so, a chapter ends…
The story’s been told
Latent messages are sent
Nothing left to unfold

There is no need for second glances
The pages set in stone
Never mind circumstances
It’s essence that sets the tone

So as one chapter ends
There’ll be a new one to script
Surprises waiting ‘round the bend
Bring new challenges to writ

~*~

Have hope...World without end...new beginings...life evolving...infinite

Yes, life is a most precious thing such as your words suggest. Embrace even trials for they bring us spiritual progression that happiness cannot do. Many people to not understand this as they wish for total world piece, but how would we learn what love and joy is if there was no hate or dispair to compare it to? That is why the Lord sent us here because all we knew was happiness in our heavenly home and there for we did not know we were happy. Like little children inn innocence they must face responsibilty and worldly matters to grow in knowledge and have their faith (ours) tested to see if we will find our way back home.
