Life – A poem about the meaning of life
Just when I start to think there is little point to this life I find a truly amazing woman has managed to accept life for what it really is; A test of faith.
No matter what you do in your life make it worth living, for a life not worth living is a life wasted.
Life is an opportunity, benefit from it
Life is beauty, admire it
Life is bliss, taste 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
- Mother Theresa

My battle with depression began shortly after the birth of my first child and has never stopped. I suppose it never will. I have learned that balance is key to dealing with this disease. Freiman talks of the meaning of life in his latest book and it really makes sense. He talks of a set of scales that need to be balanced. One side of the scale is full of internal things and the other side full of external things. Freiman lists the attributes that add weight to the scale and asks the reader to decide the balance. Find your proper balance and you find the ability to be happy. http://www.gafreiman.com is the book site. Life is like a box of chocolates and that is the beauty.
