Living good life?


How does a man know when to love and when to kill?

How does he keep his conscience quite clear and quite still?

How does a man know who in this life those that he can trust?

How does he know what is good and all that is just?

How does a good man know what is right and what is wrong?

How does he live a good life that is full, blessed and is long?



He puts his faith in his God and those values he holds dear

He lives his life fully without any regrets, nor without fears

He invests his time wisely giving energy to all that he treasures

He knows his true worth without using others as his measure

He approaches each day with an open mind and positive view

He gives of his time freely and seeks those experiences to him which are new

He gives thanks at the end of each day for each blessing he receives

He lives life fully trusting that he will receive all that he needs
