I believe life is a gift
Though through hard times we've had to shift,
Life is precious for everyone,
Remembering nothing could be undone.
Sadly, sometimes, life is taken for granted,
People don't remember we've all been enchanted,
Life is special to me, deep from within,
Even when sometimes we all know it spins.
Life isn't only all games, play and magic,
When people go through hard times, it's actually quite tragic.
Some people think life is happy all the time,
Sometimes something happens like a victimless crime.
It's sad when life's wasted, but sometimes it happens,
But when one door closes, another one opens.
People should be thankful for what they're given,
So get out there and just start livin'!

So true this is
I think in todays world we do forgive and at times when someone who has been forgiven keeps killing and harming others it gets harder to forgive we so need to help those who continue to harm to find peace in their life so others will no longer be afraid
