The road called life

by Dagmar Wilson   Apr 8, 2016


The road called life
we all have to walk
it's a journey of lessons to be learned,
never to give up on our hopes and dreams.

We fail, we succeed
being attacked, learn to fight back
tell the difference between right and wrong.

Our hearts get broken
we grow stronger,
love is still around.

Getting older used to scare me
all it means that my soul is at peace,
something my eyes has not seen.

    Such truth and wisdom learned through living life. I loved in particular the last piece

    'my soul is at peace,
    something my eyes has not seen'

    How often does our mind and soul recognise something that our eyes have yet to see.

    With age comes experience and wisdom. From it we see through the milestones we have traveled and as we get older, realization sets in and meaning of life opens our eyes. Liked the message this write sends out...well penned!

    Dagmar, how very true on getting older and learning and letting go. Being at peace with ourselves is so important-some people never reach that point and how sad is that-

    Hi Dagmar,

    Your words are so touching and realistic. I think the most important thing while getting old is enjoying every moment, sending positive energy and much love, that's the best way to deal with this :)

    Enjoy the day
