Journey of a Lifetime by Adrian CalhounBorn into this world
we each embark on a journey,
choosing our path as we go.
As each day passes,
we grow older and closer to death.
To the same end,
we have also lived another day,
and to potentially experience greater things.
Do not mourn the passing of youth and time.
For youth wastes time,
and time erodes youth.
Instead rejoice in what God has given,
enjoy each and every day.
Live as if there is no tomorrow. 03/18/2003 Posted on 03/25/2003 Copyright © 2024 Adrian Calhoun
