! ! ! The Circle Of Life
The circle of life goes round,
and then round some more.
For most a roundabout of want,
minds fed by a parade of things
all made to increase ones desire.
Suppose we could have everything,
money, power, status, sex, security,
all our desires satisfied, what then,
now we have made it, what comes
next with all our wants fulfilled?
We will now realise having all of life’s
pleasures, does not make us happy,
does not fill the aching gap, the need.
For once ask what our heart desires,
we’ll find it needs peace and liberty
from the cycle of wants, desires, and
craving for life’s material pleasures.
The freedom to be happy with what
we already possess and permission
to enjoy each present moment Now.

We should live each moment considerig it the last one of our life. This is how it has to be if we actually want to make the most of our lives. Being materialistic is only joyful for the time being but the actual way of life is living beyond all desires for even a king cannot have his desires fullfilled while a common man can and vice versa. A very wonderful poem highlighting the truth of life.
