Need Less. Give More.

Need less. Give more.  
Stop looking for the sorrow in life. 
Watch the good things grow.  
Don't give up. 

Live your life to the fullest. 
Life is the one thing you can't redo. 

Find the joy in the ordinary  
Because boring is never plain. 
The art life creates, 
The swirls in the sky like a painter mixing his colors.  

Love all you can  
Because everyone deserves a chance. 

Search for the beauty in the ordinary.  
Find the city of shining light  
And stay there for the rest of life. 

Try your best to give 
Everything that you can.

    Willow

    This is an empty house, 
    A house that's lost its soul. 
    The laughter and joy that once echoed through it, 
    Faded away with time and age.

    Seasons

    Summer is going fast, 
    As the nights grow colder. 

    Summer came and went, 
    And took with it that feeling. 

    Fall brings sorrow, 
    It reminds you that time doesn't stop.

    Darkness

    Standing in the streets, 
    The darkness of the city lights 
    Washes over you. 

    The joy of the summer fades, 
    The sorrow of the fall is a current feeling.
