Life is a work in progress
that never is complete.
We learn a different lesson
from each experience we meet.

We learn the joy of living-of what a heart is for.
We learn that through our struggles
we are stronger than before.

We learn the thrill of victory-the pain of a defeat.
We learn to win the battle
we must first learn to compete.

We learn from our reactions
to the things we can’t control-there are times we should hang in there
and times we should let go.

And if we keep on learning-if the truth we try to find-
The wisdom of the ages teaches-
keep an open mind.

These lessons that we gather
as we travel on our way-help complete our work in progress-a fulfilled life someday.
