shorter than we think

life is short, much shorter than we think
it flies by each day, we barely have time to blink.
love big, pray hard, serve without regrets
you never know who you'll meet tomorrow or who will not be here yet.

Smile, hold hands, share a glass of tea
a hug, a whisper, and kind words,  are free.
remember the good times, make it a point to be glad
forget your hardships, they have a way of making you sad.

reach for the future and all it promises
forget the past, it's over, take time to live
every day is new, each moment a blessing, though some may be hard
know, that each experience gives wisdom to the heart
