South Of Someplace: Life Wants You

Sunday, January 20, 2019

Breathe with confidence

Celebrate the things you’ve done

And how far you’ve come

Think of all you’ve learned

All the work that you’ve put in

To take you this far

Take credit for that

Recognize your sacrifice

Be proud of your life

But know that there’s more

More to learn, more work to do,

More to challenge you

If you want to grow

Recognize how much there is

That you still don’t know

See things as they are

Avoid the temptation to

Think you’ve done your best

And please never fall

For the pleasant delusion

That it’s time to rest

Life wants more from you

More dreams, more work, more struggle,

You have more to give

Happiness is not

A goal once reached remembered

Living in the past

Happiness is life

Spent learning and striving for

New goals ev’ry day

Know that this is true

You’re alive ‘cause life wants you

Now, what will you do?
