In the journey that life presents to us, each stage brings its own unique challenges and blessings. During our youth, we are overflowing with energy and time seems infinite, but we lack the resources to make all our dreams come true. When we reach maturity, we achieve financial stability and still maintain our vitality, but time, which was once abundant, becomes scarce. In old age, when we finally have both the time and the means, the energy that once pulsed within us is no longer the same. Life teaches us a clear lesson: we must value and enjoy each moment with what we have, because fulfillment does not lie in possessing everything, but in living wisely.
Stages of Life
In youth, life is infinite,
Energy shines like the burning sun,
But gold is missing from the chain,
And the soul feels incomplete.
In adulthood, strength is blessed,
Work bears fruit, is present,
But time slips away, impatiently,
Haste makes the journey restricted.
In old age, gold is company,
Time calms us and shelters us,
But the flame slowly fades.
Life is like this, a fleeting melody,
The lesson is clear, wise, friendly:
Live the now, intensely.
