These life lessons were actually written by Regina Brett on the night before her 45th birthday after being diagnosed with breast cancer. The lessons quickly became a viral hit on the internet with one article sharing them along with a picture of an elderly woman.

The nature of these lessons gives the feel as though they written by someone who has lived a long life. While the author isn't 90 many of us can only imagine the shift in perspective one might have after receiving such a serious diagnosis. Regina is now in her 60s, a successful author and inspirational speaker. The lessons remind us of what's important, to not take life too seriously and to go after what you love.

Alfred Austin was a prolific political writer and poet who succeeded Alfred, Lord Tennyson as poet laureate of England. Full poem: IS life worth living? Yes, so long as there is wrong to right, Wail of the weak against the strong, Or tyranny to fight; Long as there lingers gloom to chase, Or streaming tear to dry, One kindred woe, one sorrowing face That smiles as we draw nigh; Long as a tale of anguish swells the heart, and lids grow wet, And at the sound of Christmas bells We pardon and forget; So long as Faith with Freedom reigns, And loyal Hope survives, And gracious Charity remains To leaven lowly lives; While there is one untrodden tract For Intellect or Will, And men are free to think and act Life is worth living still.

Life is a jest; take the delight of it. Laughter is best; sing through the night of it. Swiftly the tear and the hurt and the ache of it Find us down here; life must be what we make of it. Life is a song; let us dance to the thrill of it. Grief's hours are long, and cold is the chill of it. Joy is man's need; let us smile for the sake of it. This be our creed: life must be what we make of it. Life is a soul; the virtue and vice of it. Strife for a goal, and man's strength is the price of it. Your life and mine, the bare bread and the cake of it, End in this line: life must be what we make of it.

Khalil Gibran was a renowned Lebanese-American novelist, poet, and artist (1883 – 1931). In one of his most cherished poems, ‘On Children’, Gibran reflects on the duties of parenthood and offers sage advice on how to nurture and raise children to best set them up for life. - Full poem: Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday. You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

- A Tear and A Smile - I would not exchange the sorrows of my heart For the joys of the multitude. And I would not have the tears that sadness makes To flow from my every part turn into laughter. I would that my life remain a tear and a smile. A tear to purify my heart and give me understanding Of life's secrets and hidden things. A smile to draw me nigh to the sons of my kind and To be a symbol of my glorification of the gods. A tear to unite me with those of broken heart; A smile to be a sign of my joy in existence. I would rather that I died in yearning and longing than that I live Weary and despairing. I want the hunger for love and beauty to be in the Depths of my spirit, for I have seen those who are Satisfied the most wretched of people. I have heard the sigh of those in yearning and Longing, and it is sweeter than the sweetest melody. With evening's coming the flower folds her petals And sleeps, embracing her longing. At morning's approach she opens her lips to meet The sun's kiss. The life of a flower is longing and fulfilment. A tear and a smile. The waters of the sea become vapor and rise and come Together and are a cloud. And the cloud floats above the hills and valleys Until it meets the gentle breeze, then falls weeping To the fields and joins with brooks and rivers to Return to the sea, its home. The life of clouds is a parting and a meeting. A tear and a smile. And so does the spirit become separated from The greater spirit to move in the world of matter And pass as a cloud over the mountain of sorrow And the plains of joy to meet the breeze of death And return whence it came. To the ocean of Love and Beauty----to God.
