Living...

My mom sent me this today I am not sure where it is from but it lightened my load.

Living....
To touch the cup with eager lips and taste, not drain it:
To woo and tempt and court a bliss—and not attain it;
To fondle and caress a joy, yet hold it lightly, Lest it
become a necessity and cling too tightly:
To watch the sunset in the West without regretting:
To smother care in happiness and Grief in laughter,
To hold the present close —not questioning hereafter:
To have enough to share—to know the joy of giving:
To thrill with all the sweets of life --- Is Living.
