Losing Life in Gaining Dreams

Grace, mercy and peace to you.

Life is meant to be enjoyed
With all it’s flaws there is always pleasure
A healthy body should not be spent
Aspiring for dreams that makes you sick
Live life and enjoy it hale and hearty
It is not fun to lose  the money you’ve labored
To regain back the health you have squandered

Modern life has so many challenges and pressures brought about by modern technology. Man has added more worries to his existence than what is really necessary, which is really comical in a way. If only you can see yourselves from above, the ants are better than you.

You work yourselves too hard, driven by a desire to have what others have, to own all the status symbols of those who are at the top. Houses, cars, gadgets, furniture, all expensive things that drain away what you’ve been slaving for  years. In order to have what you aspire, you push yourself harder to have money in the bank.

Suddenly you get sick, what happens now? Slowly, your savings are spent and if worse comes to worst, your properties too are sold for your medication. Then too late, you will regret how you lost your life to save for your future and your children only to lose it to regain the life that is slowly draining away.

Plan your life well, live in moderation and learn how to be contented with what you can accomplish within reasonable means. Do not aspire for what society dictates you should have. Live simply within your means and truly enjoy life.
