The Secret Of Living by J. Carie Sexton

To appreciate beauty and the gifts nature brings,
To discover the pleasure of life’s simplest things,
To remember the blessings we receive every day,
To explore new horizons as we travel our way—
This is the Secret of Living.

To find hope in each raibow that appears in the sky,
To give comfort to strangers who may be passing by,
To keep smiling whenever there’s a task to be done,
To be gracious in losing and give thanks when we’ve won—
This is the Secret of Living.

To build meaningful values in this life that we live,
To be full of compassion and be willing to give,
To regard as a treasure every friendship we’ve made
And to find peace and love even time cannot fade—
This is the Secret of Living.
