Life

If life kicks you when you're down, 
don't lie down and die,
pull yourself up off the ground 
and punch life in the eye. 

Don't wallow in self pity 
and think that life's futile. 
Always strive to do your best 
and make your life worthwhile.

Ahh, I love reading these inspirational word of yours, yeah instead of being coward we should face our difficulties because that is the only way, and believe me that God don't test anyone more than he/she can bare, every difficulty is followed by happiness, when the life is against us, stand up and have patience in God, when it is in favor of you, bow down and thank God, that is the way of life,good luck and have a nice day
