Love life

Maybe loving life is
not about earning
not about gaining earthly stuff
not about taking from the world
not about splurging on materialistic goods
not about having rights
not about status
not about binging
not about being drunk with lust
not about the exterior beauty

maybe loving life is
living life the way it has been given to us
appreciating those that have placed in our lives
giving a lending hand to those who are in need
and accepting the hands that are being lent to you
just be
you
one with the body
one with the planet
Doesn't the very thought that there are so many of us
living on the same planet
with same desire
to be significant
and special
just makes you want to smile to your neighbors?

It makes me smile.
That's one reason why I am still here.
