LIVE, LOVE, and LAUGH
I asked somebody to give me a topic and this is what they came up with. This isn’t even a hard one for me but since they suggested it, I shall proceed……I pray people experience happiness that I have. I love life. I love the sun and the rain. I’ve learned to appreciate life. I didn’t wake up like this. I went through hell and back. Me and Devil rode shot gun a couple of times. Me in the driver’s seat while the Devil in the passenger seat and a bottle between us. That was the crew a lot of times. We would ride out at night. I would wake up in front of my house sometime later not knowing how I got there. Tough times. But they are my past times. I thank God for every day. I’ve come so far. I’m happy. I pray you feel the same. God woke you up this morning. You should be excited about that. I wake up and look outside. I open up the door so I can feel the air. I text my closest folks to let them know I made it to the morning and I’m thinking of them.
Life happens fast. So does death. People living their lives on ‘time-out’ status.
I hugged my friend at school on Friday and then got the call Saturday she was dead.
2 years later, I came home after seeing my girlfriend one night. 2 hours later I was trying to pull my father back on the bed because he was having a stroke and I didn’t want him to fall on the floor. Two weeks later he was dead.
Live your life. Life is too short to have your life on ‘time out’.
Forget earrings, cars, clothes, and diamonds. Life is the most precious gift you have. Some people waste it on watching TV all day. Some live to work and work to live. People spend their days being so careful that that they never discover satisfaction, happiness, love, or all the condiments that come with life because they are so afraid to live. They are so careful with their life that they don’t realize they are not living. I thank God for this gift. I spent years wasting it. I spent years being selfish with it. He gave me life when I tried to throw it away. I now spend my life giving it back to him. LIVE, LOVE, AND LAUGH.
