In our one life, we’ll face ups and downs,
If we fail, well, we’ll pick ourselves off the ground.
If we win, great!
We’ll celebrate with glee,
But doing nothing due to fear? That’s not for me.
We’ll be brave, not scared, as we go along,
Facing challenges, singing our own song.
In life’s adventure, we’ll take our stand,
With courage guiding us, hand in hand.
In the passage of time, one life we’re given,
Where fate’s whims may leave us either forgiven.
In failure’s embrace, we find strength’s true grit,
Yet in victory’s glow, our spirits uplift.
With courage as our guide, fear we defy,
For dormant hands inaction does imply.
Through trials and triumphs, our journey unfurls,
In the dance of life, courage unfurls.
– Pope
