THE JOURNEY by Tom Krause
Ships are not built for the harbor-
surely in life there is more.
The journey is what brings fulfillment
to a life that is worth living for.
From the heart comes the hope of the present-
from memories dreams from the past.
From the soul comes the spirit of living-
from experience lessons that last.
Look ahead to see where you are going-
look behind to see where you have been.
Look inside to discover your purpose-
then let your life's journey begin.
Take care as you sail to your future.
Share kindness with people you meet.
Take heart in the oceans you conquer -
till your journey through life is complete.
And when your life's voyage is over-
when your sun starts to set in the sea-
pass on to the next generation
the joy that the journey can be.
