The Parable Of The Pounds
-August 28, 2023 -417
“The greatest thing a man can do
In this world is to make
The most possible out of the stuff
That has been given him.”
I just got the sense,
Without the moms,
I wouldn’t have all these,
The state of the mind.
The peace,
The joyful feelings,
The comfortable relaxation,
And everything before my eyes.
I just couldn’t help it,
I’ve already had everything,
I didn’t realize it,
Now I realize, that
I need to make the most of it,
At each moment,
I’m chasing the great,
Something I’ve never done before.
The voice tells me,
There’s no turning back,
You have to make an effort
To move on always.
And the voice is serious,
There’s no joking,
It’s a life-and-death situation
To me.
