A Purpose In Life

A Purpose In Life  
Bees flutter from place to place  
Rarely do they leave a trace  
Like the nomad who has no home  
They just move about and continue to roam  

People who have not found a purpose to be  
Continue to flounder and may be too blind to see  
My personal belief is that we all have something to give  
Hopefully it will provide the next generation a better  
place to live  

We can not all be Einsteins or Madame Curie  
However we all can serve a purpose like that bumble bee  
Nuturing, loving and compassion are gifts that we share  
It is a gift that benefits people everywhere  

Your self worth is a gift that you can give to yourself  
Remember you are important you should not be placed on a shelf  
Never let anyone demean or control  
Your most important possession is within your soul  

The next time you wonder why you are here  
Think about those people you hold so dear  
Each time you say I love you or tell them you care  
Then this is your legacy that you are able to share
