Another Day Another Way
Life Lives On
There are so many things to see and do
Every day we make decisions
These moves are small steps that lead to climbing bigger steps
We don't always see where we are going
It is like fog has covered our eyes
Sometime later in life the fog has lifted
We can see our faults and our greatest achievements
Our mistakes tend to haunt us
I should have
I would have
If I only knew
We are people
People make mistakes
The important part is that we are here today
Through one big mess
Through all the heartache
There is so much to be proud of
The happiest moments of our life
Didn't just happen because of what we did
It was the result of what we followed through with and what people thought and also did
So it was a combination of effort
Part of which we had little control
Lets take a bannana for instance
We feel like eating a bannana
So we go and eat a bannana
In the short view
We say that was easy
The bannana looked ripe and then we peeled it
It was good
We didn't know there was a blemish on the bannana
A bruise we did not see
Under the skin
So it wasn't a perfect bannana
Then again nothing in life is perfect
Sometimes we get really really close though
After eating the bannana
I was very pleased
It was just what I craved for
I even at the bruised part
Now i take a step back and think of all the people involved
To make that one situation possible
Someone had to grow the bannana
Long before I even thought of eating it
Then they had to take that bannana and ship it to a store
Where the store had to put it out for display
Then I had to come along and buy that bannana
Before any other customers did
Bring it home
Then eat it before my wife did
So one little bannana
Had a life journey of it's own
Anywhere along the line it could of been disguarded
Then end up in the great bannana grave yard in the sky
In the end it made it to my stomach
Where it gave me the energy to write this short and sweet
Morning treat
So make it a good day
Try to remember
Life is not only what you do
But what everyone else does too
