LIFE IS A STRUGGLE!

You're born with a cry, live for a while and you leave many to cry!

Grow up, study well, good health, wait for a nice job, start a family, 

Wanting to settle in one place, buy a house and lead a normal life.

You want to be happy but everything is hard, life is a real struggle!

 

Since birth to the end, from wombs till you are carried to the tombs

You hear stories of failure and success, former are more than latter,

Working hard to succeed, you fail; working for fun, success dawns!

You want something but refused, you're given when you don't want

 

Keep running day in and day out like a deer to get something to eat,

You have many difficulties and keep looking in the papers for jobs!

Really struggling to meet both ends, wait like a hunter to get a prey

Keeping calm and wait for the target and shoot when it is seen first!

 

You know Robert Bruce's story; the great warrior, Scotland ruler?

The maxim, 'If at first you don't succeed, try, try again'… to win!

Courage, confidence, perseverance to fight all battles till war's over. 

Fight any number of battles till final battle is won to end this war! 

 

When struggling, successes and failures are common but short lived

When you succeed, don't be carried away, when failed don't give up 

Success or failure, take it easy, keep going till the efforts are yielding

Be brave, fight against odds, swim against tides, life is worth living! 

             LIFE IS A STRUGGLE!  IT'S WORTH LIVING!!
