Staying positive isn't easy,
but you'll find that it's worth it.
The same way dieting is tricky,
but feels so good when your old jeans fit.

Because having an open mind,
heart and soul
feels a lot better than the way negativity takes it's toll.

Life is already rough as it is,
and sometimes it can feel like you're a bit stuck.
So why not try treating your loved ones better,
praying, dancing, and believing in good luck?

And when you think about it, really,
you don't have much to lose when you're down in the dumps,
and in your depressive blues.

Of course it's not a cure, but it's a good place to start
because the bitterness you send out to the world,
lives for longer in your heart.

No one truly knows how you feel except you,
but who knows what tomorrow will bring?
When life is beating you black and blue;
remember: there is beauty in even the worst of things.
