Array ( [sid] => 162019 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => LIFE MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS [time] => 2010-08-25 23:39:24 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I'm looking at the moon tonight
Looking at the stars in the sky
And wondering why for everyone who is born
Another has to die?
Why does someone who commits those crimes
Have the right to walk this earth?
And when those soliders fight a war
Well, they just seemed cursed
It doesn't seem fair, it leaves me in a daze
Life moves in mysterious ways

I'm thinking of a newborn child
In their mother's arms
And when they grow, they might die young
Even though they've done no harm
I just don't care what the people say
Life moves in mysterious ways

I know life can be an act of fate
A sudden change of the wind
Why do the good seem to get punished?
And left alone are the sinned?
I just ask the questions
From the thoughts that run through my mind
I just hope that one day
That I will find the logic in the answers I find
The world can be a labyrinth, it can sometimes be a maze
Life moves in mysterious ways...

I will find the answers, come what may

LIFE MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS

Life does indeed move in mysterious ways...a young person graduates from medical school, completes an internship, does a 5 year intense residency...and is now ready, at long last, to hang out his shingle. However, on the way to inspect and sign the lease for the new office where he'll practice medicine, he is hit by a truck and killed instantly. What's the sense in it? What's the logic? How can it be? LIFE MOVES IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS. You are a very talented poet. What a way you have with words! You are so thoughtful in your clever analysis of life as it is in the real world. Keep on writing. I'll keep on reading your "stuff."

God knows best,he knows what we know not and that is why everything happens for a reason because something only happens by the will of god,be it good or bad,god has given us choices,if a person murders sumone,it was der choice and so will be punished.
