Lessons taught

The hardest job you will ever have is  love.
It is not just a gift from above.
It takes a lot of work to get it right.
Sometimes you may fight.
But always be each other's light. 
Don't get stuck on a negative thought.
This is from lessons taught.
Only thinking about the bad.
Makes you sad.
Turns your thoughts blue.
Makes the negativity come true.
If you focus on the good.
This must be understood. The happy stays stronger. 
Longer. 
You only have today.
Face it in a positive way. 
If you face life with grace
Tomorrow will fall into place.
