The Game of Life
Is this life just one big game
In which there are no rules?
We are given different challenges
That we solve with different tools.
We all start in different places,
Then go in our own directions,
But if at times we go awry
We can often make corrections.
Our aim is to be happy
And to avoid distress.
And as we play this complex game
We'l...

Controlling Our Lives?
Do we choose who we really are?
Do we decide what things we do?
Do we have the power to shape our lives?
And make our dreams come true?
Do we have a say what is in store?
And what will be our fate?
Are we in full control our minds?
Can we help it's happy state?
Or do the gods govern this world?
Is there any point in resistance?
But if you ask me who's really in charge,
I say we cont...

Listless Life
My listless life just drifts on by
Like the clouds that float up high
All is still. I see nothing move.
And of all things I disapprove.
And so turn thy wheel. Let life be good.
Then let us all be understood
Let the Sun now break through.
Let this golden globe echo my life's view.
Take me from this world of trouble
Prick and pop this secret bubble
And through the tears of heaven let m...

Life for Everyone
No, there does not exist a perfect person
Or a perfect scheme of life,
And there is no path all smooth to travel,
With all happiness and with no strife.
And while cannot turn back time
We may amend our mistakes
And we can then learn of them
No matter how long it may take.
So patience must be our lifelong guide,
And not to dwell into despair
And not spend our...

Philosophy for today
Why are we all here?
What is life all about?
Are we sure that there's a God?
Or are we in some doubt?
How should we all live?
Is it always right to be good?
Are we constantly being judged?
Or are we understood?
Where are we all going?
And is it left up to fate?
Is it best to be early?
Or should we arrive late?
Is it best to be honest?
To be des...

The Story of Our Lives
Every day we live a story,
Including characters and plots.
Some of them are exciting,
While some of them are not.
Is it firstly all planned out?
Or made up as we go along?
What sort of person shall we be in it?
Will we be weak or strong?
Can we choose to write the scripts?
Can we choose how it all ends?
Shall it finish good and happy?
And is there a moral...
