One Chance

this is written for my aunt breast cancer services...

We only have one chance in life
In life to complete what we were sent here for
To see how far we can go
to reach for that shinning star

We need to take care of ourselves
For it’s what drives us to where we need to go
And the strength we have inside
Can shine for everyone to know

But if we neglect our health
How can we reach that shining star
How can we raise our children
And show them they can go far

Show them that life was made for them
And in you they will see a glance
Of how amazing you are
Isn’t this worth one chance?

Somehow this piece takes me into the importance of family life. You have seized some important themes, procrastination, perseverance, caring for self. Thanks for this revlevant piece Cordell.
