Life lessons

For us all

By Gregory AndersonPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

Always learn to count your blessings

The problems that come are only life lessons

Should you be unhappy don't stand on the side

To reach any goal you must cross the great divide

Foe's may come disguised as friends baiting you that you may give in

Distractions are a tool to sway you from beginning your fight

Success is the achievement that requires more than might

Learn to guide your life from the dark to the light

Simple to conceive though hard to command the resources to devise your plan

Holding on to what we've left behind, growth requires us to open our mind

Strive to grow to command some of life’s greatest gifts you can not hold in your hand

For every obstacle just keep pressing until you reach your goal this truth is for the young and the old

Sometime changes keep us guessing, we must learn to embrace life's lessons
