Rising To the Occasion

When challenges present themselves, Which happens, after all, We’re confronted with two choices – We can rise or we can fall. If our fear or nerves may cause us To feel paralyzed or numb And avoid the confrontation, Then of course we will succumb. Yet by tackling the problem, There’s a chance we might succeed And the knowledge that we’ve done so May be just the boost we need. So it’s always worth the effort For, no matter how it ends, There’s a prospect of improvement That each enterprise extends.
