before it goes away

There are times when life is hard. 
There are times when life is easy. 
There are even times when life is perfect, 
but that only lasts a short time. 
So long as there is life, 
we should take the good with the bad 
and enjoy every minute 
that is given to us. 
Life is too short, 
a countable time in years. 
Best we make the most of it, 
before it goes away.
