A Student of Your Life
Decisions are never final
they but lead you through a door,
sending you down a pathway
you've never been before...
..you are but a student of your life.
Situations that overwhelm you
can cause you to react,
and you'll be sorry they weren't actions
that you chose.....and that's a fact.
For you are but a student of your life.
The road to your maturity
will be different than the next,
each will include the same pathways,
with a different order, pace, and text...
..and you are but a student of your life.
Be kind to yourself, in this regard
for these things will complete you,
and the end result will include lessons,
that showed you what to do...
..for you are but a student of your life.
Hold your head up, high to the sky
and know that you've done your best,
whether you've crawled, ran, or skipped along,
you matured just like the rest...
..because you are but a student of your life.
