Life

Courtesy of Genn; she found this poem amoungst other posts in the daycare staff area where she now works.

I love this life, I love the layers.

There is so much to be learned,

and I tend to forget that.

Each "crisis" is really a very spiritual opportunity,

though it can be hard to see

when you are underneath it.

We are blessed with such love and light in this life,

and I hope to hang onto that without forgetting

that it is always with me.

It never leaves, it is constant.

It is our duty as human beings

to enjoy the gift of this life.

We have been promised a short trip here,

then back to home again.

Try to find the beauty in every day,

even when it's not so pretty.

Its there.

It is the ONE constant.

Don't lose sight of it, it's there, it's in you,

it is who you truly are.

It is easy to miss, but it's there.

Trust it, it hasn't gone anywhere.
