Author's Note: "With One's Life" is another poem from my poetry archive. It is a Didactic poem with a compelling message, that is, at least from my perspective. With one's life, it's all about the choices that each one of us makes that reflects who we really are, or in some instances, who or what we should endeavor to be. Something to thing about for sure.

With One’s Life
There are always choices to be made and certain realities to square
within the confines, conflicts, and limitations of human existence.
It is given and understood that human beings shall never be perfect,
despite their religious overtures and genuflections to Almighty God.
And, it is worth noting that human beings may fall pray, at times, to
the vanities of life even in situations where they seek to do better.
Nobody is perfect, but it is both noble and grand to see and witness
when a person rises to the need to help others who are less fortunate.
The most challenging aspect may be for any person to put himself or
herself in harm’s way when an instance of direct loss of life is at issue.
Regardless, there are indeed people among all of us who do choose to
positively engage in crisis situations to help others in need—all Heroes!
With one’s life, the choices we all make define and shape who each of
us are as we seek to find our true purpose and direction by God’s grace.
What can be more noble than that?
