Life
is a Journey ..... Birth is a beginning and death a destination And life
is a journey: From childhood to maturity and youth to age; From innocence
to awareness and ignorance to knowing; From foolishness to desecration
and then perhaps to wisdom. From weakness to strength or from strength
to weakness and often back again; From health to sickness and we pray
to health again. From offense to forgiveness from loneliness to love from
joy to gratitude from pain to compassion from grief to understanding from
fear to faith. From defeat to defeat to defeat until looking backwards
or ahead We see that victory lies not at some high point along the way
but in having made the journey step by step a sacred pilgrimage. Birth
is a beginning and death a destination And life is a journey; A sacred
journey to life everlasting. |
