Only Human - by K
On the other shore of sadness,
It is said that there is a smile,
Finally we arrived,
But what are we waiting for?

The purpose is not to run away,
It's to chase after dreams
We should have gone out to travel,
On that summer day so long ago,

Even tomorrow, if you see it.
Thought there isn't a sigh either,
Like a ship going against the current flow,
Right now, go forward, move ahead

Even if it cuts through the rain and clouds
The wet roads shine,
Only the dark will teach,
A stronger and stronger light,
Be strong, go forward move ahead.

Time... there's not nearly enough to do everything I want to do. If I had all the time in the world, I would be able to do it all, I would be able to play ALL of my Playstation games and ALL of my PC games, become good at guitar and singing, pick up a new language, do well in my studies, have a huge circle of friends and maintain close relationships with them all. I would have time for a girlfriend. I think if we all had time, we would be nicer people too.

The thing is, no one realises what they've got till it's gone. You don't realise how valuable each tick is worth, how every day the sun comes up is a blessing from God Himself. You don't know this, until you find out your time on Earth is limited. Ask a 99 year old, ask a person dying from sickness how important is each day? How would you change your life if you knew that you were going to die soon? What would you want people to say at your funeral?

I guess that's why we have priorities in life. We determine what we give each priceless hour of our day to. How do we spend our time, and who/what do we give it to? Are the priorities right in my life? Are the priorities right in yours? Do we do the things that really matter in life? I guess that's what God put us here on Earth to decide.

Life is but a moment, don't regret yesterday, and live today so you won't have any regrets tomorrow. Don't let this make you feel depressed, instead, appreciate each and every rainbow in your life, appreciate the people who mean something to you, appreciate the good, the bad and the ugly.

Lamentations 3:22-23 says "Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."

Thank you God for every chance I get to wake up, and every day that I get to live to glorify Your name. Thank you for every bad day, thank you for every good day. Help me to live life to the fullest till the day I die. But also help me to do the things that hold true meaning in life.
