When my time comes (to die)
I want to die with a smile
I want to die young (at heart)
As late in life as I can
.
Throughout my days on this Earth
I want to share life & give
I want to live my life fully
And like I know why I live
.
I want the people to say
That I was honest & fair
& that I loved from His heart
& that my life’s truly art
.
When you say, ‘life is too short’
It just becomes my pet peeve
And when I hear you repeat it
My peace & joy seem to leave
.
To me, it’s like hearing this:
Most High does not have a clue
He gives us big jobs to do
And yet, His days are too few
.
Not me! My life is enough
To do what I’m made to do
It’s in the setting of goals, in love
And then, in following through
.
Oh Yes, I have to agree
Life’s surely too short to fight
Too short to hold on to grudges,
Or to be dead while alive…
.
Yet still, your words have the power
Power to add or abort
And by repeating this phrase so much
You might be cutting yours short
.
I’d like to lock this advice
Within your heart & your mind,
But I’ve no PIN access code
Just PIN this life-giving quote
Everybody dies someday
“How?” is the question, not “When?”
To Live Well & to Die Well
Should be the goal here. Amen.

Happy New Year!!!
