Life is a short journey

Life is a short journey,
Lasting a couple of dozen years.
A thousand four hundred mornings
That fly by in an instant.

It may seem a lengthy stay,
But the list of things to do is vast.
So you must learn to live today,
As if each breath could be your last.

Speak the truth you hold within,
Never forget your friends, and stay open,
Find your love with bold defiance,
And feel each moment, sharp and clear.

Don't waste your heart on bitter quarrels,
On troubles or the thankless soul.
For life is not in years you barrel through,
But in the moments that make you whole.
