Good Moments

Believe me

My dear,

This life

Will hurt you.

I have no doubts

About this.

But it will also

Be very good

To you as well.

And these good moments,

You will quickly find,

Are the moments

That make it all

Worthwhile.

The moments where

There is just so much

Good and joy

Around you

That you feel it

Making you smile.

The moments where

You look around

At your loved ones

During a gathering

Of great food and drink

And realize

How lucky

You truly are.

These are the moments

You will treasure

Above all,

And you should,

Because they are

Beautiful.

Forget the bad stuff,

My darling,

And focus on the

Moments

That make your life

Feel whole.

Focus on the moments

You would live in forever,

Because these

Are the times

That make life spectacular,

And you’d do yourself

A favor

By rejoicing

In the feelings

That they bring.
