Life

I've come to realize you can't always be happy
As much as you put that fake smile on your face people still see the pain
Not everyone can beautiful on the outside but everyone can be beautiful on the inside
It's a decision a person chooses during the journey of their life
Happiness comes from the heart
It's like making that touchdown or scoring that one goal
There was never a specific path placed at ones feet
But there were a couple one can choose to walk along
Life isn't suppose to be easy
But I don't think it was meant to be hard either
It's a precious gift that we must cherish no matter where it takes us

    Since you hav'nd put anything up new <kinda like keeping your fans waiting> I'M forced
    to critiuie your old poems again. you say
    life's a gift and I agree but does always have to be a pair of tube socks for some.
    I mean some people like myself get up every day and work hard and do whatever Im suppose to do as a husband and father
    and yet nothing seems to ever make me happy. I mean don't get me wrong jess I
    DO APPPeciate my family but sometimes
    I just wish I could find what ever it is that
    would make me want to get up the next day
    I mean really want to get up. life is just
    the same old s**t day after day. like Im
    in sleepwalk mode you know.

    I M not sure where I heard this befor but someone said that the journey to life starts
    with the first step. but the journey or path as you put it depends unpond you and the choice you make. Jess you see all the wrong choices around you and you know you don't
    want that mess up life so look for the right
    path and take it. Don't be a sheep be a leaner make a good path and others
    will follow. Believe it or not I see great
    things for you. Always did. I don't pretend
    to know you. In a SEETHER song called
    rise above it theres a line that applieds to
    you < Im gonna mend myself befor it gets me and rise above it> thats you and your
    path. <3 cy

    WOWWWWWW this one is a thinker. actually
    made me think about a few chioces. I think
    life is what you make of it. but you can't control what other people do or feel. so
    they can make or break your day. you
    say life's a gift but does it always have to be a pair of tube socks?
