"Life must go on, and so it does unabated.
Whether you actively participate or indolently hibernate,
the sun will rise and shine, dew drops will fall, birds will fly,
cattle will graze, and at the end of each day the moon will reflect the rays of the sun.
Life goes on whether we like it or not.
As my good old buddies Jedi Blue sang in the early 90s in a lovely cover ...Why Worry?
The twists and turns that scare and demotivate so many are not wished for, but one grows to learn that they are to be expected.
At it's time of delivery, what would the newborn child be without it's cry?
After his last breath, what would the powerful man be other than peaceful and quiet?
In between life and death, the starting and final whistles, what would the beautiful game be without firm goal posts and some dribbles, lobs, decisive shots, back passes and robust tackles in-between?
So go on. Set your goal and follow your dream
Sometimes you must tread softly, others you'll have to scream
But live your life whether you're seen as friend or foe
And keep on trucking through the desert towards your stream
There will be sunny days and breezy nights
There will be grey clouds and ..errrm.. mosquito bites
There will strangers bearing good tidings and sorrow
And dearest friends today turn enemies to fight
But such is life whether you are husband or wife
Or lonely heart in search of your peculiar strife
There are fragrant roses in the garden for you
Go get them but be prepared for the odd prick and knife"
