I have been asked this question
Over and over
How do you move forward?
After all that you have been through?
What motivates you
To stay in the game (of life)?
The answer is surprisingly simple
It's one word actually
"Passion"
A strong desire
To live
To love
To enjoy life
My losses
Are clarifying
They free my mind
To focus on important things
Leaving inconsequential things behind
I learn from my past
Live in the present
Knowing that the future
Is never guaranteed
It's a liberating feeling
Freeing me to enjoy
Everything within my grasp
My only expectation in life
Is to be purposeful
Through my actions
And good
In my heart
When the day comes
To draw my last breath
I hope to have
No regrets
Surrounded buy loved ones
With my heart full of joy
From a life well-lived 🙏
