I Don'T Have To Outrun the Bear, Only You
I Don't Have To Outrun the Bear, Only You
by Rick Rucker
In everything there is a way,
To live to fight another day.
I'm not talking about being a coward,
But rather being fully empowered.
Life comes at us, hard and fast,
You must find a way to last.
The initial onslaught can be rough,
But if you are tough enough
To handle it with aplomb and Grace,
Then you will have won the race!
Your competitors, not up to the task,
On the Winner's Podium, you can bask!
In the Race of Life, you need not outrun The Bear,
Just the others standing there!
