To Stop the Wind

Be still my soul
There is nothing you can do
To stop the wind

Breathe the free air
And face the sun

Enjoy the warm rays
That shine upon you

Breathe

Life is short
Hang in there

Eternity awaits you

Only Few

Some people pretend to be happy

Others think they are happy

While others want to be happy

And there are those who should be happy but not

And those who have no reason to be unhappy but are

Which leaves only the remaining few

Who truly feel happy

Only few

Only for a while

Are you happy now?

A Great Faith

Have you ever been to north pole?

Yet you believe that it's there

Have you ever been on a plane?

Because you believe it won't crash

Have you ever dined at a restaurant?
Because you believe the food is safe

Your entire life is based on beliefs
A demonstration of faith

And some people live
Their entire lives

Believing that there
Is no God

That also requires
A great faith

Perhaps greater

No doubt about that

The more I live

The more I experience

The more I see

The more I realize

That I live in

A "Dog eat Dog" world

No doubt about that

The problem is

I am not

A dog

To the place beyond....

Strange is how people
Born, live, and die
Not knowing why, how, or when
Just day to day
Living because alive
But not wishing to die
That innate drive to be happy
Searching for the unknown
And time passes
And passes
Until they too
Pass away

To the place beyond.....
