Its not the years in your life, Its the life in your years!
My friend put a very good question or rather a quote " It's not the years in your life, its the life in your years" . It intrigued me as a very beautiful thought and I thought of a Poem about life. Although I cannot encompass all the beautiful things life has to offer in this short poem but I tried and that's the beauty of Life... you can try endlessly...
Thanks to UNLEASHED FREEDOM for the inspiration... he is an awesome hubber and philosopher..!
Brooding over what you have achieved
What accolades you conquered
About the wealth you amassed
Of the riches you prospered
Give a thought to the life you have lived
It's not the years in your life
It's the life in your years
Think about friends you've earned
About the care you have shown
Think about the goods you have done
Of the redemption you have sown
Give a thought to the life you have lived
It's not the years in your life
It's about the life in your years
Have you felt grass under your heels
danced like lunatics in the rain
raindrops on cheeks, know hoe it feels?
Have you listened to the cuckoo sing tunes
Or gave yourself up.. in the midnight moon
Have you tasted friendship
Ever enjoyed the flavor of love
Indulged once in comradery
Or some enmity once that you shove
Have you climbed trees and stole ripe mangoes
Strolled up a cliff and jumped into a pond
Felt the water all over your body
Like hymns and psalms and a heavenly bond
Have let your heart ever get stolen
and then never complained
Have you felt the sun beams' golden
and never sweat or drained
Have you lost yourself to a song
Like to weed, to hash, to a delicious bong
Life is a mystery, not counted in years
It's a joyous ride, full of smiles and tears
Life is lived, it must not be accounted
Life is gift, respected... unwounded
Live as if there was no tomorrow
Strive each moment as a gifted one
Don't let sins and deeds tear you hollow
Embrace time, it is your own
Don't count moments in life
you won't find many
Find life in small moments
Then moments will come many
Give a thought to the life you have you have lived
For it is not the years in your life
It is the life in your years
