Some Life’s Paradoxes

The dead can’t care about living; The living must pray for their dead; Though dead took care of living then, The living can’t take care of dead! The elderly cared for all young; The young must care for aged when old; The love that parents had shown then, Can’t be repaid ever by young! The fruits I enjoy now when young, Are from the trees planted by aged; The things I do to others now Will be returned to me when old! The measure I use for others Will be used unto me by God; The judgments I pronounce on next, Will decide my after-life’s rod! Let’s do our duty with great love; Reward will come from heav’n above.
