In the dance of life, we find our way
Through shadows and light, come what may
Emotions rise like tides of the sea
Yet they don't always tell the full story
Reflect, dear soul, on the path you tread
With grace and wisdom, move ahead
For in this journey, we learn and grow
Imperfect humans, seeking to know
Your feelings are valid, a truth to hold
But they don't grant a free pass, bold
To act in ways that wound and scar
Choose kindness, let it be your star
Accountability, a guiding light
In moments of darkness, choose what's right
For how you show up in the world each day
Shapes the legacy you leave, come what may
Arguments and drama, a tempting snare
But is the chaos worth the wear?
Choose peace over turmoil, let go of the past
Find joy in the present, make it last
Live in the moment, let fulfillment reign
Release the burdens, break the chain
For life is a tapestry, rich and vast
With choices that lead to a future unsurpassed
So, as you navigate this human race
Choose to respond with love and grace
Embrace the growth, let your spirit soar
For you are meant for so much more
