Why is this life
so difficult sometimes?
I'd like to know the answer...
Its just so hard to get through somedays,
but
I guess that if life were easy,
there'd be no mistakes to learn from,
and no falls to get up from.
Why must we love
and get hurt?
I'd like to know the answer...
There's days I just don't want to be in love,
but
I guess that if love were easy
we would never feel the pain,
and we'd never know true love.
Why must we grow,
get old and pass away?
I'd like to know the answer...
It sometimes just doesn't make sense,
but
I guess that if we didn't grow old
we'd never learn from a past
and couldn't teach the next generations,
that
life will be difficult,
but you'll learn from mistakes
love can get your hurt,
but eventually
you'll know what true love is,
and we all must grow old,
to figure out why...

Good golly! I have to go check your author page after this. You have the wisdom of old, but your pic doesn't show what one would assume from this write. This is really brilliant. Thanks so much for this entry. Good luck. Jeannie
