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.

    a block or so down

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
