" Be yourself, everybody else is taken." - Oscar Wilde.


Live life to the fullest
It sounds so easy
But in order to do that you got to live out each day
Whether good or bad
We can’t ignore the negatives
All we can do is acknowledge them
This will lead us to the good in our lives
Every day
You should be thankful to be healthy and free
To be whoever you want to be
No one stopping you
Unlike gay people, people who suffer and people who are discriminated against
We live life to the fullest
But must not forget the people who only have a few days
Or not much of a life
We got to move on
But , let’s not forget those who aren’t as privileged,
To be able to live a carefree life
Filled with pure happiness
Money and things don’t make someone privileged and happy
Friends, Family, everyday teachings and values make all of us lucky
Happiness derives from different connections with people
Everyday discoveries
Not objects that hold no meaning
So, live fully in this world
Hold on to all the wonders it possesses
Make sure not to forget the bad
Because in order to seek out the good
You need a little of the bad
