Don't want to grow up with regrets, the older I get. Less is more, but less leaves me here to bore. There is a world waiting to set an unknown footprint, an outsider waiting to leave a print.

Wanting for more respect, the older I get. A trait to earn and a trait to give, that is the virtuous way to live. Morals are the secret to success, nothing but certain truth to become the best.

Carefully selecting whom I let, the older I get. People who celebrate and learn, with elated hearts they yearn. Celebrating each other accomplishments, and our biggest assets.

Everyday is a bet, the older I get. I bet this is what life is about, a conundrum of tragedies and stories to pout. We laugh and we cry, all and all at least we all try.

Don't want to grow old feeling dead, the older I get. Receive joy every chance I get, one life is all there is left. Nothing but good things my way, as I give back to those who stood with no delay.
