Just Laugh

Laugh when you are feeling upside down Laugh when you feel like you want to frown Laugh when you are climbing the mountain Laugh when you make it to the top. Laugh when you make a big mistake Laugh with honor when you walk through the gate Laugh when the odds are forcing against you Fight back with dignity and laugh. Laugh when you have to endure sleepless nights Laugh when you have to put up a fight to survive Laugh when the journey seems longer Keep laughing because it won’t last forever. Laugh when your needs are not fully met Laugh with your might and don’t ever fret Laugh when the bills are racking sky high Laugh until your purposes are fulfilled. Laugh when everyone is attacking you Laugh when they say nasty things about you Laugh because you know where you are coming from Laugh, you have endured humiliation for so long. Laugh when you are in the heat Laugh when life gets very sweet Laugh when you feel upset Life with power and humility Laugh with love and dignity. When the day is done And you emerge on top Raise your hands towards the heavens and laugh. ©2015 Christine Phillips
