Anyone who has ever seen baby being born,
has lost a loved one, a child, father, mother
partner, husband or a wife…
knows how amazing…how treasured…how precious is a life.
It’s difficult to actually put into words how precious this life is
from the time we were in utero…
It is more than words can ever express…more than we can ever know.
With life…there are chances for contentment…
filled with surprises big and small
Without life…it’s obvious…there is no chance at all.
Life is precious because we know
for no particular reason…no particular rhyme
this life we have been gifted…can end at any time.
Which means this gift of life is to be cherished…savored
every minute of every day
It is not meant to be wasted…not meant to be thrown away.
It is meant to live in harmony with the lives of all our sisters and our brothers…
It’s never meant to demean, harm, abuse or take that gift from others.
Life is too precious to be restricted, manipulated…or defined
too precious not to be accepting, compassionate, generous and kind.
Too precious to think of only me and mine…instead of yours and ours…
Too precious not to try new things…to reach up to the stars.
Yes, life is a thing of wonder…a thing of beauty and creativity…
so precious we need to make every day
the adventure it is meant to be.
