Life is full of ups and downs:
so we have to take all the tumbles and the falls
just as we rejoice in the flights of glory and merry-making;
Life is what we make of it:
so we have to let our heart grieve at things that are lost
just as we let our heart swell with gratitude at the joy of unexpected gifts
Life can well be as we like it -
for the mind can be where the heart is
and life is, in our minds, how we 'see' it:
colourful bits and pieces
of a jigsaw puzzle -
that's what life is!
