What gives life Meaning?
Do we want to be like the cursed fig tree?

No fruit brought to bear,

Like we were never here?

It’s true, not everyone can change

The entire world in a meaningful way,

But we can do the small things each day.

Love thy neighbor, aid the poor,

Bake cookies for the guy next door.

Bring meaning to our meager lives.

A smile takes but a moment,

But it can last forever.
