It's Up To You
Life is what you make of it.
It can be bitter- or it can be sweet.
When things don’t go your way,
Don’t give up, and wallow in defeat.
There’s a bright side to most everything,
If you look for it you’ll find.
All things work together for good,
And that brings peace of mind.
When life hands you lemons,
Don’t accept that as the end.
It’s up to you to see the positive side,
And to change the future with faith, my friend.
