Quintessence of Life
We don’t have to be right to find true delight
Happiness comes with acceptance, and occasional repentance
Hopes, dreams, aspirations, it might take but a little perspiration
Fears should be overcome, then you will see who will truly become
The true joys of life should not cause strife
Take a look around, let your true self be found
Live not in fear, look farther than simply the mirror
Look for what you truly desire, something of which you will not tire
To find that which you truly seek, may require more that simply a peek
Superficial isn’t the way, that can be found any old day
Look deep inside, don’t simply ride with the tide
Feel free to change your mind, you never know what you may find
Life can be fun, or it can seem to weight a ton
The choice is yours, do not equate it to unpleasant chores
