Array ( [sid] => 65015 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => CHEERFULLY DANCE! [time] => 2004-09-24 15:24:31 [hometext] => Did you find life so hard that you forgot to dance? Have you lost your Joy? Into all our lives rain will fall, try dancing through it all! [bodytext] =>

"CHEERFULLY DANCE!"

Life really took me by surprize!
Thought 'twd be a "Bed of Posies?"
Obviously I wasn't too wise.....
Haven't found anyone who disagrees!

Life for me was damn hard!!!
Didn't take me long to figure out.....
Adapt fast, or end up a retard!
Either that, or complete "phase-out!"

Priorities....which came first?
My God, family, work, and then fun?
That didn't work out, I'm accursed!
I'll have to change my attitude's action!

No time for any Joy, let me see?
Matters not what life hands me.....
If I stay positive, slide into home base free!
Plenty of Joy....while working hard--remain cheery!

When life throws me a curve.....
I don't duck anymore, I hit it straight on!
Joyful attitude, "chutzpah," means "nerve!"
Life pitches, I wear a grin....connect dead on!

Can't control the situation?
Survived many a fast ball without hesitation.
Joyfully grasping your bat, take a chance!
Smile, smash it out of the "Ball Park of Life!"
Cheerfully dancing with each pitch.....
faith without strife!!!

Take a lesson from our little friends the penguins;
When their feet get cold, they don't sit down, they dance!



"Sometimes your Joy is the source of your smile,
but sometimes your smile can be the source of your Joy!"
~Thich Nhat Hanh~


Still Dancing after 50 years!

*Light-footed Smiles!*

And why is life tough, and full of trouble? - well, It lieth in the wicked one, since the fall. If you lie in the wicked one, the world will be your cup of tea.
But, of course, you know this.
This is why I believe there is so much pain in the world. And then, It also shows man his deplorable condition giving reason to repent, and vindicates a Holy God's law. After all, " the world was made by him and FOR him."
God Bless

If you must choose between dancing and weeping, I hope you always choose to dance...Lines from some country song..but I thought they were great, like your poem.
