Life's Meaning Poem by Lesa MRK

You must be able to laugh and to cry,
Because if you cannot show emotion,
You shall never know why,
Life has meaning.

At times you will feel like life has no meaning,
When good times are so few -
But you must discover the tenderness,
Others feel for you.

If you can give of yourself,
When others are in pain,
You will learn the true meaning,
And life won't be in vain.

But if you don't draw understanding,
From the losses of the day,
You'll never gain a meaning,
From the blessings that come your way.
