Test are made to determine what you know,
How you react, and what you are made of,
Even though some test will give you a shove,
Directing you where you might need to go.
At some point in time, you will have to grow
Instincts, that will elevate you above
Levels of hate that overshadow love.
You have the power to take any blow!
Right or wrong, these test will come with a grade.
Easy or hard, these test must be taken.
Progress is something that has to be made,
Or else your future will be forsaken.
Rest assured, some kind of price will be paid.
Time for your inner strength to awaken.

Who would want to live a life without making some kind of progress towards some kind of goal?! What is in our instinct, in your OPINION?! What would POETRY be without RHETORIC FREE UNDERSTANDING?! There will never be any such thing as TRUE ACCEPTANCE. There are always conditions upon which people accept each other. Just like ther are conditions upon which people reject each other.
