“Our lives are one big puzzle,
We don’t know how many pieces we’ve got.
There are people who fit in quite nicely
And people who try but do not.

We’re constantly adding pieces,
All the memories of things we’ve been through.
We add laughter and tears and adventure,
And the lessons we’ve learned to be true. 

Everyone has their own puzzle,
There will be ones where you do not fit.
Don’t you ever dare make your piece smaller,
Just so you can live there a bit.

If you keep cutting off all your edges,
One day you won’t recognize what you see
And you’ll forget the person you once were,
Before the world told you who you should be.

Make the most of each piece in your puzzle,
It’ll be a grand masterpiece when it’s done,
So you won’t have to look back when it’s over,
And realize you’ve left out the sun.”

This poem really speaks to me! How does it speak to YOU?

When I change the last word from sun to Son, meaning Jesus, it gives me more to think about. How about YOU?

HAPPINESS KEEPS YOU SWEET. TRIALS KEEP YOU STRONG. SORROWS KEEP YOU HUMAN. FAILURES KEEP YOU HUMBLE. AND GOD KEEPS YOU GOING!
