Upswings and downswings —
There’s no knowing which way life will swing.
Are you wounded? Are you hurt?
So am I.
But that’s okay,
Because the truth is that everyone is wounded and hurt,
There’s no one that’s not,
That’s life.
Depressing thought?
Don’t give up yet.
Hold that sigh,
For sighs are not the only things that make life.
For every sigh, there’s an opportunity to smile.
And hey, don’t take life so seriously, okay?
It’s just a little game that the Universe wants to play.
You are just expanding in joyful space,
And while it might seem that you are fighting against all odds,
That you are up against a wall,
Trust me, that’s never the case.
The entire Universe that you see outside,
Is within you too —
Yes, you yourself are the Universe,
Expanding through and through.
This is game of life is a game you decided to play long before you were born,
Joy, sorrow? They’re all the same,
Just a part of this game,
So like a child at an amusement park,
Getting on a roller-coaster ride,
Decides to let go,
And focuses completely on the thrill to be enjoyed,
You can let life in too,
Smile, laugh, have fun,
Relax knowing that come upswing or downswing,
How you take life is up to you to decide.
You don’t have to be so grave, so hard on yourself
Upswing or downswing, you can still smile wide,
And enjoy the ride.
