We make our life.

We make a life by what we give 
never thinking of what we may receive.
We make a life by helping others 
never thinking of the help we might receive in times of need.
We make a life by looking forwards 
never dwelling on the mistakes of the past.
We make a life by being positive 
never taking the negative view.
We make a life by loving others 
never letting hate dwell in our hearts.
We make a life filled with contentment 
and long friendships too.
We make a life we love to live 
as each day as it passes through.
