Love Listen – Ann Gray

Let’s love, listen, take time
when time is all we have.

Let’s be unafraid to be kind,
Learn to disregard the badif the good outweighs it daily.

Let’s make a gift of silence
the day’s hushing into dark,
and when we hold each other
let’s always be astonished
we are where we want to be.

Let’s hope to age together,
but if we can’t, let’s promise now
to remember how we shone
when we were at our best,
when we were most ourselves.

Celebrations of Life

Look to this day: For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence. The bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendour of achievement are but experiences of time.

For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision; And today well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well therefore to this day; Such is the salutation to the ever-new dawn!

~~ Kalidasa
