To Live

Is A Real Joy

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about 4 hours ago 1 min read
Make your life a happy life

“It is our road and we are alone.

Others may walk with us,

but no one can walk for us,”

How true these words are!

Our lives,

and therefore our journey in life,

is our own responsibility.

This begs the question:

“Why not enjoy our lives and be happy?"

It is true,

we all have loved ones to care for,

work to do

and the list never ends.

But as we ‘must’

look after and ‘sketch’ out

our own lives,

let’s make them positive,

happy,

strong and

a real joy to live.

The choices are ours alone,

so let’s make the best choices

for us!

If we are looking ahead in life

in a positive and optimistic way,

we will also benefit and help others too.

As we walk with each other through life,

we can support each other.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    This feels like a gentle nudge to actually live, not just exist. I love how you remind us that while the journey is ours alone, joy is still a choice we can make every day.
