For as long as you never harm anybody and try to help others on your life's way <br />And never make an enemy on purpose and respect to the rights of others pay <br />And never lie about the character of others one's character <br />should be a sacred thing <br />By your words never try to put down others but by all means their praises you should sing. <br /> <br />live and let live does always hold such relevance even in this modern age of the twenty first century <br />In fact it does apply to everybody as well of course to you as well as me <br />Yes live and let live is our best way to live with our words we should not drag others down <br />Though few of us at all are near to perfect you will not find a saint in every town. <br /> <br />Live and let live in our lives we should practice to untruthful words one's good character can fall <br />One can only respect those honourable people who honour the truth in a fair go for all <br />Why should one disrespect one because of money respect the poor pauper and the billionaire <br />As long as they do not get rich by deception and in their dealings with others be honest and fair. <br /> <br />As long as you never do harm anybody and try for to do a good deed every day <br />Though you may not be wealthy and looked up to by others in the eyes of karma you are doing okay <br />And karma is real and it is said of karma that the karma we reap is the karma we did sow <br />And if you live and let live and be kind to others the best of good karma you only will know.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/live-and-let-live-7/
