The Meaning Of Life

Many have asked the meaning of life.
Some have spent their lives in that search,
always searching - never finding.

They seek, but do not see.
They listen, but do not hear.
They talk, but do not speak.
They have no understanding.

  The meaning of life is all around us.
It's in the skies, it's in the seas,
It's in the smile of a child.
It's in the touch of a friend,
...in the kiss of a loved one.  

It's in the eyes of a stranger you have helped.
It is in the beauty of a sunrise and of the sunset.
It is the ability to love, and to accept love.
It is striving to better ones self.  

Many have searched but didn't find it.
Many more are in search, and will not find it.
Their hearts are empty.

 
To find the meaning of life, open your heart,  

Then you will see -
Then you will hear - 
Then you will understand -
Then you will know the meaning of life.
