Pondering thoughts, feeling quite dreary;
They always say life will soon improve,
But about the topic, we've all sometimes felt a wee bit leery.
Having self pity won't to make the hardships move.

Carpe diem; dum vivimus, vivamus-
Seize the day; Let us enjoy the life we live.
That's what is said to us;
Enjoy the life that God to us, chose to give.

'Tis sometimes hard, and life is at times robust,
But do your best to keep your head held high.
For a joyful life, these things can be a must.
If at first you have difficulty, just smile and try;
Hope, faith and trust are key-
These are the things that help make life happy.
