How to Live

I will keep my head up with pride.
I'm a human and I'm fine.
Life is hard and very scary,
But I manage to prove it daily
That I'm tough and I don't care.

Little beings around us fly.  
Others move slowly on the ground.  
To survive is all they want.  
They succeed, and all is fine.  

Animals are abundant.  
All they do is play and eat.  
If they are free and do what they want,  
They are happy on this earth.  

As we see, there are many ways 
To achieve our happiness. 
All we need is a bit of strength, 
And we will see that life has purpose.

Every human on this earth  
Should have peace and plenty of time,  
To be loved and to love back.  
That, I think, is how to live.
