Life

Life

 In life, some things are easy, while others are hard, but you make the choices, for you hold the cards.

The road may be long, and sometimes it’s tough, but never give up, even if things seem to rough.

You can’t change the things, that have already been done, but you can learn from mistakes, yet still have some fun.

Never do anything, you may one day regret, for you can’t hide from the past or the people you’ve met.

The past consist of memories, made of the good and the bad, and all of the moments you’ve had whether happy, or sad.

They say you can forgive, but can you ever forget, the best lesson in life is “ you get what you get”.

Don’t take life for granted, live each day like it’s the last, and always remember, the past is the past.

You are in control of the decisions you make, and always be yourself, and never be fake.

If ever you feel, like just giving up, remember that when bottom is reached, you can only go up.

Bury the demons in the past, and learn from your wrong, for what doesn’t kill you, just makes you strong.
