Life's Exam.

Goldfinch60



Life is like an exam.

We look at the questions

And can find them hard,

Find them hard to answer.

So many fail that exam

When they try to copy,

Try to copy others

Hoping they will get it right.

But what people do not realise

Is that in life

Everyone is different

And that each life

Has a different exam paper

          • 2781

            We fail for lack of good role models.

            • Goldfinch60

              We may well do 2781 but my father was my role model and all is wonderful.

                  Very true Andy. We all have different questions that relate to different answers because no one person is exactly like another. But the one key that ties it all together in love.

                  • Goldfinch60

                    So very true AP, love can be the answer to everything, if only we all thought that way.
