Points Of View Poem by Cyrus Diaz

on life,

Life is so short
never hold back,
forgive like you
have an amnesia,
believe like a kid,
love like crazy and
regret not the things
that made you happy.

on forgiveness,

Forgiveness is not
something you do for
yourself, it is
something you do for
your soul, something
you do for humanity.

on patience,

Patience is not the
ability to wait,
rather, the ability
to keep good attitude
while waiting.

on happiness,

Real happiness comes not
in achieving great things,
rather, enjoying
simple blessings in life.
real happiness comes from
the completeness of God's love.

on diversity,

Give room for differences
in perception, don't insist
everyone should see
things as you do,
life is not a bland
uniformity.

On dreams,

If you feel God
has allowed your dreams
to die, lay it inside a box
and bury it before him,
let him in his own time
come to the tomb and resurrect
your dreams.

A person who has a dream
knows what to give up
in order to grow.

on giving up,

If you give up too soon,
you will never know
what you will miss,
don't stop when you're
tired, stop when you're done.

on gossip,

Some people may talk
behind my back,
they will say stupid things,
but they only know my
name, not my story.

on Appearance,

In most aspect,
all creatures are alike,
what differentiated them
from other is what
we call appearance.

on giving,

Nobody is to rich,
that he has nothing to need,
nobody is too poor
that he has nothing to give.
