An Affirmation for 2008 by Roger Williams

Human life, a precious gift
No gold or gem has greater worth
So we should rightly value it
And all of nature on this earth

For life can be so short and cruel
its aim and purpose lost with time
So cease every moment is my rule
Make every day complete, divine

So what if hard times come your way
and the stormy winds prevail?
Batten down. Don't be dismayed,
lift your thoughts up from the fray
Stick your chest out and boldly say,
"Life is worth EVERY storm, and I will weather them all!"
