The Purpose of Life

The PURPOSE OF LIFE is to CARE-FOR-LIFE,
To CARE for ONE and ALL.

To love ONESELF and OTHERS too,
Will help us STAND UP TALL.

Our ULTIMATE GOAL is a FULLNESS OF LIFE,
A true EXALTED STATE.

For when we learn to CARE-FOR-LIFE,
Our time on Earth is GREAT.

CARING-FOR-LIFE is a two-fold gift,
To REALIZE our FATE.

The other gift is very wise,
When we PERPETUATE.

To REALIZE we SELF FULFILL,
Through SELF GRATIFICATION.

The very wise PERPETUATE,
The joy of MULTIPLICATION.

CARING-FOR-LIFE CONCEPTIONS are,
The THOUGHTS that CARE FOR OTHERS.

When we provide the ACTS OF LOVE,
We learn from DADS AND MOTHERS.

The QUALITY OF HAPPINESS,
Is a product of CARING-FOR-LIFE.

By gaining more our WILL TO GIVE,
We think much less of strife.

A FULLNESS OF LIFE is a FULLNESS OF JOY, 
To make our lives COMPLETE.

So TAKE MY DARE and LEARN TO CARE,
To make your life more SWEET. 

SERVICE IS THE VEHICLE,
By which we learn to LOVE.

For LOVE IS LIKE A MIRACLE,
To BLESS US from ABOVE.

And yes, WE LOVE THE ONES WE SERVE,
As you have heard folks tell.

For when you GIVE WITHOUT RESERVE,
Your heart will surely SWELL.
