*Life is a moment, a declaration;  
It puts us into a test,  
of persistence and consistence;  
It kindly teaches us the origin,  
of who we are and what we are.*

*Life keeps us busy,  
Let us find our way.  
It whispers in our ears,  
and shows us the road.  
The journey is long,  
we have to do it alone;  
Often we are lost,  
and the road is gone.  
We reach for guidance,  
and struggle to stumble the way.*

*The road is the way,  
and the journey is the end;  
Only choices are ours,  
they accompany our way;  
The trip is hard,  
often uphill and more downhill;  
heading forward seems so far away.*

*Life is true;  
it never lets us down.  
Our mind is tricky,  
it gives us a hard time.  
We believe its lies,  
sights of wit and fame.  
We run to shortcuts,  
and forget the way;  
Life kindly leads us back,  
but soon we head again our way.*

*We never seem to learn,  
but, therefore, life is the way.*
