the bad things in your life
open your eyes
to the good things
you weren’t paying attention
living in the past
causes you to miss out on the present
life is too short
to let it pass you by
time goes on
life goes on
whatever bad things happened
I don’t care
if you’ve fallen down
today is the day
you can get back up
and try again
don’t dwell in the past
don’t dream of the future
concentrate the mind
on the present moment
everyday is a new opportunity
to stand up and try again
keep on trying
when there seemed to be no hope at all
