Life Is Not a Test Booklet
Life is Not a Test Booklet
Life is not a test booklet
to be filled out in number two pencil.
as your future goes down the drain.
There are no erasers in life
only mistakes to make,
only time and distance.
Life is not an elective
it is our permanent record,
our neatly filled in circle.
Life is an eternal learning moment,
a non-existent classroom.
Life is not a test booklet.
We must live our lives
move forward - scars and all.
There are no erasers in life.
What are you willing to learn today?
What are you willing to teach?
