Poem: THE LIFE WE LIVE

Dorothy Dempsey's latest, on the necessary intersection of life and love in the modern world.

Life we live is a winding road.

A journey fraught with

 many twists and turns.

Life, death, and sickness,

 and many pathways in between.

Throughout our life journey,

We have an opportunity to

learn many valuable lessons.

Often, opportunities are missed.

Because we do not take the time,

To gain insights from life's experiences.

God provides guidance.

A reminder to love one another.

And respect and care for each other.

While living our life to the fullest.

It is life for which we offer our prayers.

And thank God every day for.

The life we live.
