Triumph Over Life

Life challenges us all each day
to wrestle it down to the ground
to tame it and teach it to play
or have it subdued and rope bound

Either way life will often sting
take us to places we should not go
but there is comfort, you should know
just remind yourself of one thing:

There is no place but at the top
no reason you should ever stop
be unyielding in your pursuit
harvest what you’ve earned of life’s fruit
Be satisfied with who you are
take pride that you have come this far
Do not bear this burden alone
even stumbled steps are milestones
(choose your stanza)

and in doing so you’ll understand
your happiness is at hand.

Self Esteem
Self Compassion
