Lessons of Life

There is plenty of time to sleep
when we die
so why waste time in sleeping
rather than doing something useful?

Don't wait,
don't delay,
do it now
or never.

Take a step ahead,
not behind
learn something fresh
achieve something new.

Love those who you care for,
forgive those who've hurt you
apologise to those who you've hurt
maybe then you will have no regrets.

Tell the truth,
be honest,
don't lie,
face the consequences.

Be fair, be nice
that's all to be said
learn from those who came before you,
and live your life fairly.
