The Gift Of Life Poem By Edith Nesbit

Life is a night all dark and wild,

Yet still stars shine:

This moment is a star, my child -

Your star and mine.

Life is a desert dry and drear,

Undewed, unblest;

This hour is an oasis, dear;

Here let us rest.

Life is a sea of windy spray,

Cold, fierce and free:

An isle enchanted is to-day

For you and me.

Forget night, sea, and desert: take

The gift supreme,

And, of life's brief relenting, make

A deathless dream.

Being...By Anonymous Author

It is the letting go of all the

should's, the must's, the have-to's,

the have-nots, the cannots,

the doubts and the guilt.

It is allowing your thoughts to come forth -

without judgement.

It is allowing yourself to feel -

without judgement.

It is allowing yourself to do what you want -

without judgement.

It is allowing yourself to be who you are -

without judgement.

When you allow yourself to be,

You find

Peace, Freedom, Love and Joy

Within you.
