LESSONS IN LIFE

Raven333

You win some,

You lose some 

Take it all in stride.

Some moments in your life,

You have to swallow your pride.

Always do your best,

Put your feelings aside

Never let anyone see you,

Come untied.

Lessons in life

Make you stronger,

As you grow.

Always take the high road

And never the low.

Never be to quick to react,

That's what people want

Their just waiting patiently,

For you to snap.

Let them point fingers,

Don't listen to what they 

Have to say.

The more you stay calm

The harder for them to run away.

I know at times it's hard,

Just look them straight

In the eyes.

Most people

Will turn away from you,

And have nothing good to reply.

The moral of the story,

Is always stick to your guns

Don't let all the hater's,

Have all of the fun!!!

    I dunno Raven. I know ppl who are on one level and never break and i know too those who have been shattered and fallen apart. I warm to the one's who have shown their fallibility to be honest. I feel more alike them in this existence.

            A great poem.

            I get your message, but sometimes, it's hard to stick to a doctrine you swore to follow when you're in a tight situation.
            In other words, the message is great, it'll reach a lot of people; however, it is hard to apply said message to, say, somebody's life.

            • Raven333

              I thank you for reading and yes I understand what you are saying

                Yes Raven, its best to not come unglued. Steady as she goes. πŸ˜‰

                  LOL, yeah right. I figured out that one to the hard way.

                      It's so nice to see you in that positive mood Raven ! By giving yourself this moral boost, after having pulled yourself through those despairing moments of your life. You are moving forwards so much better now, both in your life, and your writing. Keep up this great movement, and as you do so, you will grow your stature in life. Well done You !

                        Thank you so much, your words are very kind, but don't be disappointed I still have some sad poems to write that I have.
