Game of Life 12/5/2025

Chances, choices
And change
As one rolls
The dice of life
Seeing what appears
And what does not.

Do I take a chance
Make a choice
Or accept the change
That’s present.

All three
Give me the opportunity
To seek out
A new potential
That needs 
To blossom
Within my soul.

How do I know
Which one to follow?

Tis all about
Listening within
Hearing the 
Gentle
Quiet voice
Longing to
Be heard
While
Trying to decide
Which path to follow
Easy or hard?

Will it include suffering?
Will it include pain?
Tis all about 
One’s perspective
In what you see
And think
In everyday situations.

Take a chance
Make hard choices
Then surrender
Into God’s love
And accept the
Flow of life
That’s how one
Plays 
The game of life.
