Life’s Ups and Downs

How life is truly a journey and not a destination.

As sure as you are born, you will die
as sure as you will laugh, you will cry
as sure as some will hurt you
someone will make you happy
you will be denied, you will be accepted
you will insult, you will be insulted
you will apologize, be apologized to
you will have good days and bad days
others will try to stop you, someone will push you on
feel like you can’t go on, a stranger carries you further
family hurts you deeply, a friend elevates with support
today you may fall down, tomorrow you’re back up,
today you are healthy, tomorrow you are not
today you are sick, tomorrow you are well
have days like a wild roller coaster, one day puts you on the mountain top
enjoy the view as you ride the train of joy, it will change sooner or later
life has its ups and downs, your choice to go with the flow
is the key to better, letting go and letting God.
