Wise men say that life is too short;
Materialistic men also say life is too short.
Short to earn, short to live or short to enjoy?
Short to learn, short to change or short to rejoice?
Life is all about purpose, your purpose in life;
Before death showers you with darkness in end.
Life is short to waste on materialistic gains;
Life is short to know yourself, it is a pain.
Life is short to realise the purpose in life;
Life is short, ignorance in the wane.
Life teaches, life uplifts, like a spiritual gain;
Life enlightens, life divines, life is an internal change.
Give to life what you wish to gain;
And life in turn will give you a treasure insane.
What you give to life will come back to you;
What you give to life, life will give it back to you.
