Breath of Life 

Why fight against time?

Accept the old age that comes without embarrassing yourself.

Without being ashamed of the deep marks that were left on his face,

Showing only a tired countenance of aging.

 

Why fight against time?

If those marks that were left on your face

They are marks of life left by the challenges,

And for your achievements in this long walk of life.

 

Why fight what is impossible?

Don’t try to revive in your old and tired body,

Kept memories of your youth and the time gone by.

From that time that will never be able to return.

 

Why fight against time?

Always try to show a beautiful and serene countenance on your face,

For everyone to see

That you managed to conquer LIFE.
