Purpose

By Samuel K Byrd

 

Is it that our destiny can be determined by stars?

Or is it just pure dumb luck that has got us this far

Most of us search for some purpose in our lives

Only to be characterized as a mother, father as husbands or wives

But are we only defined by how we are perceived by another

Or is it something else that keeps us from going further

What was lost can be gained again

Sometimes we just need a comforting word from a close friend

The job is gone; your back to renting and you had to trade in the Jag

We need to focus more on what we have instead of what we had

Everything in this world is rented, borrowed, and will soon expire So live for you and not others wants, needs, and desires
