Learning From Lifes Paths

Different paths our lives will take Some are good--some a mistake But we grow and always learn With every twist and every turn We get taught whats right or wrong Allowing us to be so strong Sometimes we fall on our butts Other times we need to shut Doors leading to a decision That will cause a bad collision On the road that leads ahead Filled with joy and sometimes dread With each step and choice we make Our hearts and minds will always take A more profound step forward Allowing us a new chance toward Respect, happiness and love As we had to push and shove Past the bad and into good Living a life that we should Be so proud that we created Feeling so glad and elated Never giving up we fought For this joyfulness we sought
