Reincarnation

Forget your past
In addition, to move on
Do not let it to hold you down
Be happy
To be alive
Cherish the moments
Do not let it die

Life is like a candle
Some burn slow
And some fast
No chance to make it to last
Before you know it
It comes to an end
For some beginning and for some real end…

Thank you for your words. I almost felt like they were written for me. They are so very true. Maybe we can use the burning light from the candle to cut the ties to our past.
