The years have passed by In the blink of an eye, Moments of sadness And joy have flown by. People I loved Have come and have gone, But the world never stopped And we all carried on. Life wasn’t easy And the struggles were there, Filled with times that it mattered, Times I just didn’t care. I stood on my own And still found my way Through some nights filled with tears And the dawn of new days. And now with old age It’s become very clear That what I once found important Was not why I was here. And the many things That I managed to buy Were never what made me Feel better inside. And the worries and fears That plagued me each day, I knew in the end Would just fade away. But how much I reached out To others when needed Would be the true measure Of how I succeeded. And how much I shared Of my soul and my heart Would ultimately be What set me apart. And now what’s important Is my opinion of me And whether or not I’m the best I can be. And how much more kindness And love I can show Before life...
