All the Best For the Exams
Greetings to all the precious friends in this class...
All of us, understandly, are equally stressed....
I thought I can, prepare a prose to lighten spirits and provide company....
Knowing well and understand that stress and misery finds company...
Exam stress are terribly bad and flag down your spirits...
So for all of us who are young and green behind the ears...
Please welcome my unsolicited words of wisdom into your ears...
Our exams is merely a hurdle just as in the countless exams before...
Only difference is that it sounds so final that you feel you have to score...
I understand things are tough, stress is high and failure is in the mind...
But be of stout hearts, people, it is not the end of life...
Persevere in your studies, put in the best you can when you sit in the final time...
Our success in your life ahead is not measured how fast you get ahead....
But how willing are you to get up, try and try again...
You only lose a race if and when you give up, not if you try again...
But we need to be smart and to make it fine in the long journey of life...
Here then is a blessed sage saying from some wise old guy we do not know...
If Life deals you a rotten deck of cards even as you strive...
Add a little magic into your life and you'll thrive...
If you do not get what you like, then it is best you better like what you get...
Sometimes in the long journey of Life, you'll need to shift some goal posts..
So that you'll be in the front and command the area between the posts...
So we as the young people out to mount the last exam hurdles..
My best and sincere wishes for your exams, I pray none will stumble...
But if we do, step back, take a breather and try another whack...
Success comes to those who fall, get up and take a mightier whack...
Motivation gurus extol unceasingly, Never give up nor be caught in a rut..
Cheers to you all, and of course, best of luck in the exam hall!
