Living

Life is full of uncertainties, and without these is there a point to life?

We were all brought into this world unwillingly, forced to suffer through today's society.

Was it our choice?

Would we have chosen this life?

Questions that remain unanswered. 

To live life to the fullest would mean to embrace this life. 

Do we really want that?

With all the possible successes to achieve in this life, does not mean we can ever come close. 

But to not take a chance at what was given to us would be a sin. 

Embrace what we can, do the best we can, but most of all be the most that we can. 

Life may not have been our choice, but it is now our burden to live. 

Stay strong, look to tomorrow, and be thankful for being a creature on our Earth.

Interesting take on life....no, we did not ask to be born, that much is true. However, once here, making the most of every day and accepting certain responsibilities makes living so much more enjoyable. Lots to ponder in your words. LydI**

Thanks Lydia for taking the time to give this poem a read. I am far from a poet and I don't write often. It's warming to know that people actual take the time to think of the meaning of my poems.
