I don't normally post my poetry on this site but post poetry and excerpts of my book on my other sites but since there is an inspirational message here I thought I would post it here. Indeed it is true life is no bed of roses, life is fraught will challenges, but remember Earth is our classroom and is the reason why we are incarnated on Earth, to learn and become better people. We will make mistakes and that is fine for that is how we learn and hopefully we won't repeat them. We will have difficult times in life, there's no escaping this but we WILL overcome and get through them and there will always be help at hand, sometimes from unlikely sources and remember bad times don't go on forever, they will come to an end.
LIFE IS NO BED OF ROSES
Life is no bed of roses whoever said it would be?
We alone set challenges as we learn through adversity
We make our own destiny so we can learn
So no point in wishing our life away, rewards we have to earn
It's ok to make mistakes as long as long as we realise and make amends
Though this is quite a complicated scenario to comprehend
But we plan and make our own destiny, no one else is to blame
And we are all at different stages of learning, we're not all the same
We all have different roles to play in each life time
Some are difficult and others are just fine
For fate works in cycles, retribution and compensation
Each role is to experience each others situation
We have to make the best of what we are given
But rest assured, help is at hand to help us with living
Remember the power of positive thinking, we can achieve what we thought impossible
But believing wholeheartedly can happen and truly be credible
Doubt is a seed that will spread and grow
So don't let that seed in to your mind sow
The power of thought is how the Universe operates
So keep believing in what you can create
For then watch change happen to your soul
Then your soul will be enriched and will blossom and grow
