Make your life's painting beautiful
And collect pieces of happy memories
Paint the canvas of your life
With bold brush strokes dear
Filled with tenderness and love
Faith and hope
Compassion and wishes
Enthusiasm and zeal
Kindness and patience
Sympathy and strength
Forgiveness and joy
Willingness and care
Peace and spirituality
Calmness and dream
Prayers and positivity
Friendship and trust
And ignore the withering words
That bring you pain and sorrow
And let go of regrets
And paint your canvas bright
Just pick up where you left off
And tie all loose ends dear
And know that these bold brush strokes
Will bring you joy of tomorrow
