Running Out of Time

Faith and hope are two things that we need. That way failure can't over take us if we're determined to succeed. Us being here is another chapter in our life. It's part of our trials and tribulations and part of our strife. So when we stop and think we have to believe. We have to give back some of what we receive. We can't sit around with our dreams deferred. Sulking about things in our life that already occurred. And we can't sit here idle thinking of the past. We have no time to waste. We need to move fast. So remember you can't feel what you already felt. So don't let this be the last hand that you're dealt. Give life a chance to deal you one more hand. Get a royal flush if you possibly can. Because in life if we do what we should. Life will deal us the best hand that it could. So stop thinking about the time that you already spent. You can't get it back so forget where it went. Just think about today and forget about tomorrow. Because time is some we're getting to old to borrow. So if God gave you extra time what would you do? Would you also think of messing that time up too? c. R. Mendoza
