Life Is...

I'm not Catholic, nor am I what some call "religious". I grew up in a Presbyterian church in downtown Atlanta. I have my Christian beliefs, I know where they came from and why I believe them. That for me is enough. I recognize there are other religions all over the world. To me, to each his own. I do not judge someone because of their beliefs.

Even outside of anything remotely religious, Mother Teresa was one of the greats of all time

Below is my favorite poem from her. 

 

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.
