Things in life happen
for us to learn by
so we can see clearly
and give our best try

If nothing good happend
we'd never know joy
the happy times shining
a sparkly new "toy"

If nothing bad happened
we'd never know pain
lost love and loved ones
make you cry in the rain

If nothing new happened
we'd never know fear
those tense little moments
that say "hey, I'm here"

If the "unexpected" never happened
we'd never learn to adjust
those times that you find out
how much in yourself you can trust

If nothing ever happened
we'd be bored with our life
so learn from every litte thing
and reach for new heights.

Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be
