A Cherokee Empression


(This is an expression I came across and it says it all)

When you were born
you cried
and
the world rejoiced.

Live your life
so that when you die
the world cries
and
you rejoice.

    Very nice but it holds true.

    And I wish you BOTH, since you already experienced the first stanza.... now just waiting for the LAST stanza to come true...

    Nice to meet you, Sir Papagallo.

    Note: I know this is a soooooo late comment...but just want to know everyone here.
