It is precious-it is goldIt can’t be bought -it can’t be soldIt’s the first thing you seeWhen you’re welcomed to lifeChallenged to live the quality lifeIt is a gift that’s fragile at timesIt’s the only one you’ll haveIt meant to protect with all your mightTo keep from the demon’s grabSome struggle hard but their efforts fadeThey’ve lost the will to fightThey’ve given up their cherrished giftThat once was in their sightOthers battle mercilesslyTo hold on to what was was givenThey refuse to surrender that sacred prizeThey’re motivated and they’re drivenHow can one explain the differencesFor choosing life or deathOr choosing the persuit of happinessRather than living a life in the depthThe answer is for each to ponderAs tough as it may beBeing responsible for your own actionsLeaves all the weight on “THEE”

This speaks volumes. Once upon a time ago, I probably would have looked at it differently. I wouldn't have given up on life, but I had given up on happiness. But today, I am a whole new person. I value the gift of life that's given to me for through effort and determination, I have found happiness. Thank you for this beautiful reminder. Another beautiful piece of gem. 💜
