Working so hard
Day after day
Brought up to believe that if you work hard
Do what you can
You can be all you ever wanted to be
But in this day and age
Where the recession has set in
Working, working, working to get deeper and deeper in debt
Finally found the power to stay above the water but
Still working, working, working
Pay cuts
Upside down mortgage
Wanting to give the kids all they want and deserve
But reality slaps the face
Material doesn’t matter
Can’t you see the higher power?
Can’t you feel the spiritual energy surrounding us?
It’s forcing us all to see….
What’s really important…
To live and breathe,
To love and laugh…
Live simply.
The meaning of life is not how much money you make
It’s about how many smiles you spread….
Have you made someone’s day a little simpler today?
