THE JOURNEY OF LIFE

We got used to the pains 
While waiting for the gains
Because we know 
There are raining days
And also sunny days
All days create memories 
Some bring melody and some agony.

We always pay the tithes
While looking for greater heights 
Because we know 
There's a price for everything 
Steadily walking on tide
Where there's no place to hide
Hoping for the best to come.

Even when we're tired  
No sign of achievements 
We don't sit back and fold our hands 
To get there, you have to start first 
If you truly want it, you have to work for it
Consistency and perseverance are the keys
Because nothing good comes easily 
Like an old saying; Rome wasn't built in a day 
So don't live hastily, patient is a key.
