The Meaning Of Life...

Long I have pondered the meaning of my existance,
The answers I believe exist deep within a soul,
It's in the beauty that lives around us every waking moment,
It is lullaby's sweet melody calling us back to slumber,
It's the spectacular sunrise of another beautiful day,
The smell of fresh meadow flowers opening in mornings dew,
It's the smile of a complete stranger as you pass on life's journey,
It's the contented laughter of an infant at play,
It's that touch of affection from someone held so dear,
That look of complete and utter love in their eye's,
It's the tears that flow freely from someone in pain,
It's all the things we see in life that we think nothing of,
The meaning of life is what we choose to make it,
The time we take to absorb the very fabric of life around us,
The effort we put into making someone's day a little brighter,
But mostly it's the love we show when needed by those around us,
Embrace the birth of each new day with enthusiasm,
Smile at the rising of the sun, feel it warm your very soul,
Let those around you know just how much you care,
Because the meaning of life, is quite simply... To live it...
