~Things I've Discovered~

It takes a lifetime to discover
That happiness is always around
If you just stop and dig a little deeper
In each moment, each day, each sound.

It takes a lifetime to discover
The way to peace is there
In awaking to every new morning
In learning how to share.

It takes a lifetime to discover
It's not about money or fame
For when these things disappear
People wonder 'who' to blame??

It takes a lifetime to discover
We should be just like a child
taking in the greatness of life
The laughter and the smiles.

It takes a lifetime to discover
Peace and hope grow within
and though people disappoint you
Your heart will always mend.

It takes a lifetime to discover
that life has much to give
If we'll let go of our yesterdays
Then tomorrow we'll start to live.

The future is not always certain
Of what lifes' journey holds in store
But if you share hope, peace and love
You've just opened heavens' door.

It takes a lifetime to discover
That the best things in life are free
and when you start to share your heart
You have truly begun to 'see'.
