"THE MEANING OF LIFE
                       AND
            THE WORLD ACCORDING TO ME"

 Does God have a plan, what Is his plan, could this 
 Be his experiment,   
 From our first breath until our last breath there 
 is life in-between.                       
 The mystery of why we are here Is perhaps overthought, 
 What is this life,            
 We walk and dream In this short existence known to us 
 As forever.
 The meaning of life appears very simple and not so 
 Confusing dear one,         
 Sit back and listen as I give my heart felt thoughts 
 Of where we are and why.
 Watch the trees, see them dance against the unseen       
 But softly felt breeze,
 Do you believe what has been put before you and me,      
 understand the gift.
 Love and laughter, pain and sorrow, must be a feeling 
 For all to know,             
 All that lives Is born to die, from the beginning of 
 Time we age and say goodbye.
 See the mountain and walk Its' path, step by step, 
 Time will pass into tomorrow,            
 The sky travels, It Is the clouds that guide the way, 
 See all things that are dreamed.
 The ocean will be, after on this Earth you and I are  
 But a memory, hear the ocean,
 Put your feet Into the sandy beach, feel the sand, 
 Walk along the timeless shore.
 Touch another's heart with the love and care that  
 Is possessed by you, reach out,
 Let go of the tears of many years with a forgiving 
 Smile that lasts a lifetime.
 If we see the sunrise, will we see the sunset again 
 The same day,            
 Are we blind, do we take for granted the beauty of 
 Our world.
 When It rains do we cry about that which falls down 
 Upon us, do we wonder why,          
 Listen for the sound, take in the drops of life that 
 Take us way on down the road.
 The meaning of life and the world according to me Is 
 From inside all that this man may see,                  
 God has laid these truly wonderous things before us,  
 To see, to dream all that can be.
