Life

Life, one cherishes so much
Each individual travels a different path
Some paths are good while others aren't the best

Convinced by living we are here for a reason
We are all people of the Lord our God
Why does the path we travel seem so odd?

Unanswered questions arise on this journey
Is life a dream,
But because of reality it is what it seems

Throughout this journey you can never learn enough
Keep an open mind
Never stop trying

Take risks along the way
Never travel in the dark
God is the light; follow God and be smart

Have a positive outlook on life
God has a plan for us all
Stay focused on what is right and stay away from wrong

Life is an obstacle course
Keep your faith strong
Follow God and you will live forever

Life is a struggle
The pain never seems to end
But the benefit is overwhelming if you stay away from sin

Live life to the fullest
You can excel and achieve
Do what it takes and in yourself believe

Society and the world can slow you down,
But they can not stop you
Never accept failure; be one of the many few.
