A simple Life

Life.

We all want to collect

We all want processions.

We climb the ladder of wealth hoping to find success.

We measure our wealth.

And equate it to our worth.

Will we measure up?

Will it be enough?

We hope and we pray we will make enough.

Just to live.

Just to be happy.

We want to buy our happiness.

We don’t want a minimal life.

We want to thrive.

This is our life.

We want to write it our way.
