Best Life

SMILE! It won't hurt nearly as bad as you think. :)

By Debora DyessPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

It's best if life is whimsical!

Inimical,

If we don't guard

Our silly heart.

We often let our feelings flow

And we don't know

The harms we cause

When we've the blahs.

Accept the day and reconcile...

You're here a while.

Choose better paths --

No aftermaths!

Yep, this is pretty goofy. But I hope it made you smile, anyway!

Intrinsical means tending to obstruct or harm. It wasn't the perfect word choice here, but it conveyed the meaning I wanted. We can unintentionally be an obstacle to other's happiness, just by being unhappy ourselves.

Thanks for reading!
