Who’s really in charge of how things pan out?;
It’s true we may sometimes feel the need to shout;
To make ourselves heard amidst all the noise;
The hustle and bustle of life with it’s joys;
And also the times when we feel quite low;
When life gets us down and time seems so slow;
These are the times to pause and reflect;
Just to be still and start to inspect.

Why do we struggle so much with ourselves?:
Maybe the answer lies on the bookshelves;
Waiting for us to read and find out;
What all our struggles are truly about;
How do we cope and avoid all the stress;
It might be as simple as buying a dress;
Or meeting some friends and spending some time;
Enjoying their company, which is just fine.

We needn’t be worried 'bout what lies ahead;
For life is much more than just eating ‘bread’
Every experience is yours to be relished,
Even the rough times are there to be cherished
We’re often reminded that life’s for the living;
Truth is if you are alive, you’re already winning,
Live life to the fullest so that when you’re gone
The world will be better because you were born.
