Life is to Short!

RANDY SHARPE
Life is to short!
To be pissed off all the time
It produces a negative effect on
your physical appearance, soul
and mind!

Life is to short!
to spend it with someone who
doesn't care for you!
So remember, It's not who you love
but who loves you!

Life is to short!
To be so heavenly bound that you
are no earthly good.
We all have are flaws and vices.
so practice being nonjudgmental
and exercising common sense we
all should!

Life is to short!
To perceive that all men are dogs
and all women are bitches.
To find the qualities in another that
brings us joy and a peace of mind,
there in-lies the riches!

Life is to short!
To try and keep up with the Jone's
indeed.
Shelter, food, clothing and someone
who loves you are all we need!

Life is to short!
To tell a lie to cover up a lie for
another lie to cover up another lie.
Being honest from the start is less
stressful and less work. If you doubt
that, just give it a try!

Life is to short!
This the only one we have to give.
So if we are going to be in a rush
for anything.
People! Let's hurry up and live!
