What Do I Know About Life

What Do I know About Life? I know that it is sacred for all living beings, I know that it is the greatest gift one can receive. I know that it is a celebration, Filled with many joys. I know that it is a tragedy, Filled with many sorrows. I know that it isn't always fair, But it is full of many promises. I know that it is lessons, Often learned the hard way. I know that it is spiritual, And each must choose their own. I know that it is beautiful, Each day is brand new. I know that it is challenging, Yet allows for victories. I know it is brief, But is all one really needs. I know it always moves forward, Whether I participate or not. I know that it is a mystery, That is all I need to know. Darlene Doll Smith
