Life as it is can be a beautiful thing,
It is a beautiful thing.
When I think of all the daunting tasks
that we do in order to stay alive with masks
I realize that all we really need does already exist
It exists within our hearts waiting in time to exit
Pain, suffering and hurt are so natural
they remind us that we are feeling beings, so natural.
When we let our vulnerabilities see the light of day
We usher in a wave of realism, and blessings no words can say
The taste of the good life lies not in hiding our good heart
but in the overcoming of expected but unknown obstacles with heart
Do not cry through the night as well as through the day
The day breaks to give us a chance to make new hay
Make room for forgiveness, empathy, growth and love
Your conditions may change but the essence of you is love
Dry your eyes sweet child, you are more protected than you see
Smile for life sweet child, stop and smell the roses you see
