If I were to ask you, what is Life? You would have a different connotation about it as compared to me or the neighbor next door. We all see life in our own perspective reflecting our thoughts, expressions, memories, experiences and beliefs. 

Here is a small poem that depicts the ever going, ever changing, LIFE:

Life is full of ups and downs, 

Sometimes it dresses you in rags,

Sometimes in gorgeous gowns.

It’s full of colors like pinks and blues and green and brown, 

You can either welcome it with a smile or a frown.

You may see a flower and it’s beauty praise,

Or hopelessly say, Life’s an unsolving maze.

In anger or depression you may pound your fist,

Or find a golden ray in it and be an optimist.

Life brings moments of laughter, moments of joy.

Sometimes it pampers you like a baby boy.

It gives you opportunity with each new ray,

It gives you a chance to hope, a chance to pray.

It teaches you to be a flower and bloom in grace,

Teaches you to shine even through a haze.

Life is what you make it to be,

Life is beautiful if only you have the eyes to see.

So welcome Life with arms open wide,

And enjoy every moment that pass by your side.
