Never Always Sometimes

Never...Always...Sometimes...




Lonely boy seen on a crowded park bench
Looking, looking up, never look up!
For once you look up you've given up,
And you are never, ever suppose to give up!

You should always stand up, get up, and rise,
rise to the occasion, always have hope, always!
Because without hope you lose everything,
any and everything you always wanted, gone!

Sometimes life is not that easy, life is hard,
Sometimes you get down, depressed, and angry!
But sometimes you need to kick life in the ****!
You are the Boss of your life, life is not the Boss of you!

Never give up...
Always take control...
Sometimes you just gotta kick some ****!!!

Well Brian, this is a great "self pep talk". I can see you walking down the street repeating this mantra in you mind as you go through the day. Thanks for participating in the contest.

You'd make a great drill sergeant of the spirit. Refreshing to see optimism among all the heart break here.

Thank you Sandra and giving up can be easier you are right but it's only easier at first but will end up costing 10 fold in the end.
