This year I’ve come to realize
I’m at an age to have experienced everything.
Emotions have run the gamut from high to low,
With whatever God decides with what to bring.
You name it and I’ve been there
Disappointments? Oh yeah, I got my share,
There was tragedy and sadness
When I was convinced God didn’t care.
My children are what make me proud
They’ve put so much happiness in my life,
Of course, I have a few regrets
And wish I’d been a better mom and wife.
In order to live life to the fullest
To share heartaches and fun along the way,
We must gamble with what the future brings
Keep a positive outlook, each and every day.
To live a decent and meaningful life
Was my goal, since a young girl,
Satisfied I’ve done the best I could
It’s been amazing to watch it all unfurl.
