We Are Going To Die Someday

Life is an endless journey,
It won't matter how fast you run,
It won't matter how many shortcuts you take,
It won't matter how much you crib for a simpler path.

What does matter is,
How you live your life the fullest,
How much you shared and brought delight,
How many lives you inspired with your magic.

Anyways we are going to die someday,
Then why not live each day with a smiling face?
Why not be the other half of yourself you always admire?
Why not be the person who will always be remembered?

Why not be yourself once again?
