Moments of Life


The following piece is meant for those people
Who mean something to me.
To those who have touched my life in one way or another;
To those who make me smile when I really need it;
To those who make me see the
Brighter side of things when I am really down;
To those whose friendship I appreciate;
To those who are so meaningful in my life.
Thanks for being there.

Have a Good Day my Friend!

There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
But often times we look so long at the
Closed door that we don’t see the one,
Which has been opened for us.

Don’t go for looks; they can deceive.
Don’t go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,
Because it takes only a smile to
Make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.

Dream what you want to dream;
Go where you want to go;
Be what you want to be,
Because you have only one life
And one chance to do all the things
You want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
Enough trials to make you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human and
Enough hope to make you happy.
The happiest of people don’t necessarily
have the best of everything;
They just make the most of
Everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always
Be based on a forgotten past;
You can’t go forward in life until
You let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so at the end,
you’re the one who is smiling and everyone
around you is crying.

Moments of joy, moments of pain,
Mementos we cherish in memory,
Nostalgic as years fly by like train,
We remember them with melancholy,
Frae birthday to birthday we learn,
Life’s little pitfalls and turns
There’s always something new,
Even though we’re growing old,
We should be at the peak of view,
When our journey’s story is nearly told.

I can’t find better words to express how I feel after reading this. It actually expressed my feelings and thoughts. It is true that we feel this way in many stages of our life. The poet is really good and philosophical. I come from a country of poets and philosophers but his well written piece deserves a thumb up.

Thanks for this beautiful poem, it express the meaning of our life.
For me i follow the speech of the prophet Mohamed(peace be upon him) who said "Smile face to your brother is a charity", so the smile in your face give to others happiness and hope in their life and it is like a light which illuminate the heart of you and peoples around you.
Have a smile in your face.
