LIVE IT UP !
If you have only today to live your life
Live it up! Be happy every single minute of it
Don’t let the sorrow draw close to your heart
Think of taking advantage of every second to see
The beautiful things you hadn’t time to appreciate during your lifetime.
Smell every flower in the field.
Enjoy the gorgeous sunset,
There you may find out the cure for your anxiousness.
Climb the highest mountain and raise your voice and say a little prayer
Towards the four winds of the earth;
And your little prayer will resound throughout the fields and mountains
And reach the bottom of God’s heart, the one who takes a pleasure in the upright ones’ prayer,
You will indeed find your exquisite delight in the abundance of internal peace
When you come down back home you’ll feel light of your sins
Kiss and hold your loved ones with strength
Try not letting them see the tears on your face.
Smile and try to forget yourself
Let your love be stronger than your pains
Help people across the street with joy from your heart
Listen to the voice of people in need
Give a helping hand to those who don’t still know this life is not to be all there is left to us.
Have you ever tried to talk to the solitary flowers in your garden?
Get out of yourself to come into the grandiosity of having loved and been loved
But if after all this you need to shed some tears, don’t be ashamed of bursting into tears,
Go into your private room and, after shutting your door, weep!
Flood your face and let the drops rolling down. It’s a heal.
After that, wipe out every tear from your eyes and smile…. Smile… smile!
Don’t let the gloom seizes on your heart. Lift up your eyes and see the white clouds in the sky.
Raise someone’s hopes and God is indeed at your side. Don’t forget it!
Go out for a party, leave the cold behind ‘cause there’s a lot of simple things that you like doing suchlike walking in the rain, dancing and smiling just to see all your clothes wringing wet.
You well know there’s no need for all the rush!
Hit the road to nowhere and be gone for some time.
Drop some lines but do not tell them where to meet you.
Speak to nobody unkindly and do not treat anybody downright rude because they have nothing
to do with your problems. Try everything good and go in for pleasure. Not to say: “I won’t do it
ever again”. Life’s still worth living! So, live it up and be happy.
Don’t forget making friends with all you see, life’s too short for sadness and
Thank God for every single day of living.
