What is it to live,
if not right now?
Why is it to live,
if not for every minute?
How is it to live,
if not to pursue each small exstasy?
If you are going to spend today sad;
be sad!
Cry your eyes out,
if there are no tears, scream til it's out!
Think of every hardship,
every heartbreak, every hateful memory.
and after your eyes have dryed
do not dwell in those memories.
For if on another day,
you decide to be sad
you are doomed for not
sheding enough dead skin.
Why not smile?
Why not dwell on happiness?
Why is it we work
So Damn Hard
to be content,
when we'll let go of it
so Damn easy?
"Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
