The Secret of Life

we live life to learn what love is
how to love ourselves
and eachother
after we experience this harmony of love
we sometimes crave to love another
and until we do there is heartache
thus the experience starts over
and a new scapegoat or evil is born

God is a story in my mind of how we achieve this
through being and we are all created in that image

Sometimes the themes of life cause you to be brave again and again
sometimes themes of life cause you to solve problems
sometimes themes of life lessons require you to work together
in the end the answer lies even in our mistakes and similarities
we are here to learn to love
