Being Alive Each Day.

Goldfinch60



Don’t ever save anything,

Save anything for a special occasion.

Being alive is a special occasion.

Let sunlight spilling through the window

Be reason enough to uncork the wine;

Let laughter echoing in the kitchen

Remind you that every heartbeat is a sign.

Wear your favourite clothes

That bring comfort to your body,

Light candles just because the night is here;

Don’t wait for perfect moments in the future,

This very moment is worth a cheer.

Life is not a dress rehearsal

Nor a script where joy is on delay.

Seize the glimmer in the ordinary,

And make each day a holiday.

Don’t ever save anything,

Save anything for a special occasion.

Being alive is that special occasion.
