The Beauty of Life

Have you ever wondered what lies in your horizon? Is it the wreckage of a wasted life or the beauty of Zion? Creating and destroying; so on and so forth Life continues, chaotic, steadfast in it's course The order of all things is beyond our control The wonderful earth, the awe-inspiring universe, even our own soul To reach out, to grasp the stars, to embrace fate Moving onward, have faith, resist the urge to hesitate Achieve what you feel is right, say what you have to say Do not live in fear, nurture love in your heart, follow your own way Break habits, break patterns, break addiction Be compassionate, be strong, live with conviction Unknown is the destiny of everything that is Embrace each moment, each day, have the courage to live

Beautifully written but a little misleading. When we follow our own way it leads to unhappiness. "Lean not onto thine own understanding ". Following the Lord brings us the happiness we cannot find in the world.
