Gift of Life

We make a living by what we get.
We make a life by what we give.
To know and not to do, is not yet to know.
To do and not to know, is not the way to go.
You cannot change yesterday, but you can plan for tomorrow.
You have been given the gift of life, so how will you live it.
To live for others' benefit, or for self pleasure and deceit.
What you give to others, in like measure will you receive.
Be honest and true to thyself, and with others do not deceive.
