What does it mean to be alive,
To really live our lives to the fullest?
Is it important to have a drive,
To be liked or thought of as the coolest?
We have just this one life to live,
And we get to decide how we live it.
To hold on or to forgive,
To keep going or decide to quit.
We can choose to follow something or someone,
Or let the heart guide the way.
We can be silly, play, and have fun,
Or focus on a topic for an essay.
To truly live and be alive,
Is to do what feels best for the soul.
For some it's taking risks to survive,
For others it's achieving a big goal.
Every day is a precious gift,
Never promised or guaranteed.
It is never too late to create a shift,
Getting unstuck in order to be freed.
Whatever we choose to do with our time,
It's our duty to follow our passions.
To live a life of our own design,
Taking it by the reins with our actions.
