Live life!

I lived each day like the previous one,

All that changed each day was just the date.

Challenges I wanted none,

I wanted to be ordinary, never great.

In the herd of people I was lost,

I was always a nobody in the world.

It went on that way without me knowing the cost,

When one day the bitter truth was revealed.

Life I realized was too short,

And all these days I had only lived the same day again.

There were things that I had to sort,

I didn’t want what was left of my life to go in vain.

I searched within and tried to find myself,

On a journey of self discovery, tiny steps I began to take.

Life began to get better by itself,

When my own decisions I decided to make.

I found the real spark that inspired me,

Did things that I really wanted to do.

I stopped bothering about how people want me to be,

Because I just had one life and not two.

I now live each day as if it were my last,

I do what I want to do and it makes me good.

There is no point in dwelling in the past,

Live life fully because that is the way you should!
