'I am not getting enough out of life' I said. <br />'What does God get out of life? ' He asked. <br />'Well everything I guess.' <br />'No God doesn't get anything out of life' he said. <br />'Life gets everything out of God, <br />and God is not unhappy.' <br /> <br />'you see that leaf <br />as it floats down from the tree, <br />care for it, hold it gently on the air <br />and set it down on the earth with care; <br />now your breath, <br />join with it as it comes and goes <br />feel it fill the lungs, bring life, <br />and that worm there on the ground, <br />join its sound, <br />as it turns the earth.' <br /> <br />'Start with simple things' he said <br />'let life receive his love through you; <br />God knows how to be happy.'<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/getting-enough-out-of-life/
