Reflection 27

this life is but a stopping place,
between the womb and the tomb
a resting place along the road
the road to sweet eternity

we all have different journeys
and destined paths along this road
our experiences also differ
but in them we learn lessons

what these lessons mean
we never may know till we reach
our destination where our tears will melt
and who we are is revealed

and when we meet He who sent us
we'll claim a great reward
according to how we faired
with the crosses in our experiences

so, until our journey nears its end
and till we hear the angels sing
lets face each new day as it comes
and feed on the love left by our fathers
