2014-06-18T10:09:00.000-04:00

life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
life is beauty, admire it.
life is a dream, realize it.
life is a challenge, meet it.
life is a duty, complete it.
life is a game, play it.
life is a promise, fulfill it.
life is sorrow, overcome it.
life is a song, sing it.
life is a struggle, accept it.
life is a tragedy, confront it.
life is an adventure, dare it.
life is luck, make it.
life is too precious, do not destroy it.
life is life, fight for it.
