The River of Life
 

LIFE  is like a river :
It flows on and on,  non-stop! 
We are sailing in this river !
May we be good sailors !
 
When the water is calm;
   we float and  we swim
in its glorious  water.
 
At times we meet the storms of life .
Waves of adversities .
We are drowning !  
Then  we clutch on to God .
He is our hope when all hopes fail.
 
At times we cling to wistful hopes :
We hope we can turn back time
And relive moments of estacy ,
moments  of love or truths .
 
Sometimes life is a song .
We sing its melody ...
 
in tune with our hope ,
In tune with our ambitions ,
In tune with the world.
 
But sometimes it is otherwise !
 
Friends , if you are  sorrowful ,
I hope God will take away your pain:
and you'll  reap the  grain
Of earthly joy.
 
Sooner or later ,
we will sail in a different river ;
THE RIVER OF ETERNITY .

Heaven's door is wide open :
 
If we remember to pray to Him that made us,
While sailing in the river of life .
 
If we remember to keep His commandments
While sailing in the  river of life .
 
If we remember to love all
men or living  creatures 
While sailing in the  river of life .
 
Then , by chance:
we'll see His welcome smile .
When that day comes !
