      LIFE'S TUG OF WAR

      Life can seem ungrateful
      and not always kind...

      Life can pull at your heartstrings
      and play with your mind...

      Life can be blissful
      and happy and free...

      Life can put beauty
      in the things that you see ...

      Life can place challenges
      right at your feet...

      Life can make good
      of the hardships we meet...

      Life can overwhelm you
      and make your head spin...

      Life can reward those
      determined to win...

      Life can be hurtful
      and not always fair...

      Life can surround you
      with people who care ...

      Life clearly does offer
      its ups and its downs...

      Life's days can bring you
      both smiles and frowns...

      Life teaches us to take
      the good with the bad...

      Life is a mixture
      of happy and sad...

      SO...

      Take the life that you have
      and give it your best...

      Think positive be happy
      let God do the rest...

      Take the challenges that life
      has laid at your feet...

      Take pride and be thankful
      for each one you meet...

      To yourself give forgiveness
      if you stumble and fall...

      Take each day that is dealt you
      and give it your all...

      Take the love that you're given
      and return it with care...

      Have faith that when needed
      it will always be there...

      Take time to find the beauty
      in the things that you see...

      Take life's simple pleasures
      let them set your heart free...

      The idea here is simply
      to even the score...

      As you are met and faced with
      Life's Tug of War.
