M is for Meaning

M is for mother nature: plants, animals, and earth.


M is for when you found your self- worth.


M is for meeting new friends and holding onto the old.


M is for the times you didn't do as you were told.


M is for the memories you and your family share.


M is for the moment you discovered life isn't fair.


M is for finding it is alright to cry.

M is for realizing you are mortal and time is passing you by.



M is for all the things that give life meaning....

I wrote the poem above... my first attempt at poetry since I was forced to write it in school. Sorry if it isn't that great... it was one of those things that just came to me as I was thinking about what to write this week.

It seems that too often we are bogged down by everyday things. Get up, go to work, come home, and go to sleep. Repeat for days on end. But honestly, is that what makes life worth living? I don't think that is what you are going to remember years from now.

You are going to remember the time you spent with your family, good or bad. The time you met your best friend. Times when you tested you boundaries and how far you could push yourself.

Maybe the meaning of life is to find meaning in life.

Just a thought.

What gives you life meaning? Think about it...
