Life Happens


Awareness is bliss

Not arrogance, but awerness

Because life happens

 

Everyone is living their lives

Trying their best to get by

Until the day they die

Along the way they sigh

Along the way they cry

Along the way they have lapses

Because life happens

 

The mother yelling in anger at her child

May not usually be this wild

She could be losing sleep

She could've just totalled her jeep

Maybe she got hit coming home, late at night from her second job

By good old drunk bob

Life happens to others

 

You never know what's really going on in other's lives

But understanding what could be happening matters

Having awerness brings bliss

Because some anoyances become tolerable

You become grateful for what is yours

You remember eating some smores

With your bestest of friends

And get lost in your peaceful thoughts

 

 

People may appear to be in your way at times

But they're thinking the same thing about you, I gaurentee

So instead of feeling somber over some lapses

Just remember that life happens
