Treasures of the heart, breathe in soft and strong,
Clear and smooth they glide into your soul.
Crystals glisten from the depths of inside
Shining through your eyes, bright and clear.
The happiness, laughter, and most of all love.
The treasures….The things that bring you to life…that make you shine
The things that make life worth living.
Things that make you brighten no matter how hard life is at the moment
No matter what kind of day you have had…these are the things of importance.
The things we should remember, always.
What is life without the love and comfort of someone close to your soul?
Someone who’s love you can feel and breathe?
The person who completes your thoughts, laughs with you, and loves you?
These are the treasures too quickly forgotten.
I wish we could all slow down and remember the things that really matter in life…the little things that sometimes get taken for granted. Sometimes we deserve to take some time off from work and all of the every day stresses to just simply enjoy the gifts of love and friendship….the gifts of nature’s beauty, and the time we are allowed to spend in it all. I think that as the younger generations continually get use to instant gratification, the things that really make life worth living are being left behind…first children today are losing the appreciation of hard work and responsibility….what will it be next? I wish we our society pressed upon everyone the true treasures of the heart instead of material goods and casual sex appeal. I wish we could tell them that there is more to life than fitting in…I wonder if these are things a person needs to learn for themselves as they grow up….or if society really could change the goals of our youth if they pressed things in the media other than what they do now. I have to believe that the media is very effective in making young people think about certain things…thinking some things are more important than others. I just hope that in the process of growing up the younger generations will figure out their own set of priorities instead of the ones that people and the media set up for them. I hope they are able to find the true treasures of the heart.
