amidst life troubles, 

amidst the pain and sorrows,

amidst the tears and sleepless nights,

amidst the endless questions in our hearts,

life is still beautiful,

if you will just open your mind.

Somebody up there truly understands. 

 poverty, 

misery,

heartaches, 

and worries with the family.

self worth,

self esteem,

it goes below zero,

friends who are  not so true  

everything turns so blue,

but in spite  of all these,

life is still beautiful,

if you offer your life to  Almighty.

He will let you live a life,

you will come to question

whether you are worthy. 

  people will be bad,

you cannot stop yourself but feel sad,

people will pull you down,

when your living your life straightforward,

they want to bury you under the ground,

oftentimes they have something bad in mind.

don't fret,

life is still beautiful,

open your eyes and see the wonders God has made,

open your senses and smell the sweetness of the day

open your heart and  feel His presence,

open your arms and embrace God's grace

let go of all negativities, 

for life with Him is perfect

and it is only through your heart you will see

how beautiful life is,

which is God's precious GIFT. 

 to you and me
