I thought walking was hard, But then I tried running. I thought cleaning up my toys was hard, But then I had to clean my house. I thought addition was hard, But then I learned pre-calc. I thought school was hard, But then I went to college. I thought losing my dog hurt, But then I lost my grandma. I thought I wanted to grow up so fast, But sometimes I just wish I was a kid again. Looking back, these hurdles I thought were so big were just tiny stepping stones creating the path for today. Looking back, I look forward to the new hurdles, The new challenges I will conquer.
