LIFE’S MEANING IS MANY THINGS

LIGHT AND LOVE AND LIFE

Life’s meaning is many things,

The quiet mornings,

The loud awakenings,

The days that hurt,

The nights that heal.

It’s the breath you forget to take until the pain finally loosens its grip.

It’s the way relief arrives like a small mercy from a familiar delivery driver.

Life’s meaning is many things

 The rose that blooms with thorns,

The story that arises when you’re ready,

The video you make because your spirit wants to speak.

It’s the early paycheck that softens the edges of worry.

It’s the new subscriber who sees your fire and chooses to stay.

Life’s meaning is many things

 Light when you’ve been in the dark,

 Love when you thought you were alone,

Life when you remember you’re still becoming.

Light and love and life

Your three‑word compass,

Your north star,

Your truth.
