Life Comes First

 

Life Comes First

Life comes first, and then the enjoyment of all things in life

You can't enjoy the special moments, battling all the strife

When things get in the way, like rocks on the road

Think about the good times, when everything flowed

When your health is deteriorating, and your only friend is fear

Enjoy every moment, of the precious time that you have here

Don't take things for granted, there's a reason for each

Before the end comes, hold out your hands and reach

Reach for the music, that you love to hear

Let it be the joy, that tantalizes your ear

Reach for the book or DVD, that takes you away

To a far away land, where you can spend every day

Visit a place, beautiful with nature's gift there

You can find it, if you look, almost anywhere

Visit with close friends, the company is great

It can put your mind, into a wondrous state

Don't let your life, slip through each finger

Moments don't last, nor does it linger

Even when you think life is at its worst

Enjoy all the things around you, because Life Comes First

Before you do anything, think about it. Choose your time

wisely. Life goes by in a blink of an eye. Be with the one

you love. Be with the one you enjoy. Enjoy nature, a place

that brings you peace and joy. Find yourself, and know

yourself. Surround yourself with close friends. True friends.

Do the things that make you the happiest. Don't worry about

the little things. Life is the big things. Don't forget to keep in

touch with family. Because that is a big part of life itself. Be

worthy of all you have become. Be proud, be true to yourself.

In time as it passes, Life Comes First. Choose life.
