After quietly contemplating through your inner mind’s eye,
a snapshot of life seems to quickly pass by.
A journey full of laughter, but tinged with sadness too,
with many lessons to learn, which at times is hard to do.
Birth through childhood has various growing pains,
increasing through teen years, but the result is the same.
A stronger foundation is supposed to be achieved,
but sometimes stays shaky from hardships received.
Through life’s passage during the maturing years,
situations may arise that conjure extreme fear.
At first you may run or just ignore what is true,
but contemplating life is what you should do.
And if parts of your life have been forgotten over time,
it may seem they have vanished from the conscious mind.
By contemplating life with serious intention,
uncovers the source that helps ignite redemption.
Through time and experience a pattern will appear,
from knowledge and wisdom collected through the years.
Contemplating life is about reviewing the past,
and remembering, plus accepting, without feeling aghast.
Where panic or distress become unconstrained at last,
or anything negative that’s connected to the past.
Contemplating life involves forgiving and release,
to initiate full potential through a newer life’s lease.
And when this transpires, you can surely rejoice,
with a limitless future filled with endless choice.
Now contemplating life is no longer a chore,
because peaceful fulfilment remains at your core.
