Hold onto the child within you

It is true that most of us are not satisfied with where we are
That we are all on our way to some place else
It is so easy to get distracted
And so much in life is ephemeral
But let it be said in consolation
That what you cannot see is what matters
The things of any real value are most often missed by our eyes
That what really counts in life can only be seen by the heart
We may make lots of noise while we are here
But we leave without making a sound
So hold onto the child within you
And approach everyday with your heart
