The poem

Post Text

We cannot walk our earthly path without a little pain, But if we know and care inside, it can become our gain. We cannot touch another's life and never cause some sorrow Though can we in all truth be blamed? We know not of the morrow. If all we do and all we say is offered from the heart If things go wrong then be not sad, for we have done our part We are not Gods that we can be correct in every action But if we try to do our best, we get some satisfaction. Although we feel the road we tread is often paved with guilt It is upon these stepping stones a better life is built. And even if we sometimes leave a trail of wounded pride The most important thing is truth, and peace deep down inside We cannot be a friend at all without some pain and hurt Or gather a relationship and never gather dirt We cannot find the path to love without some disappointment Or run the race right to it's end without some discontent So pilgrim on the way of life remember always this That as we give so we will get, in sorrow and in bliss But each and every little failing soon can be forgiven If sincerity has guided us, and truth is in our living.
