Life is a journey, a winding road
Filled with ups and downs, twists and turns
It can be a source of joy, a path to growth
But also a source of pain, a lesson to learn
We start off as innocent children
Filled with wonder, dreams, and hope
But as we grow, we are faced with challenges
That test our strength, our will to cope
We may stumble and fall, but we must rise
For life is a journey, not a destination
We must learn to embrace the good and the bad
For they are both parts of the journey’s sensation
We must learn to love and lose
To laugh and to cry, to live and to die
For life is a precious gift, a fleeting moment
We must make the most of it before it goes by
So let us cherish each day, and each step we take
For the journey of life is a precious thing
Let us live it with passion, with purpose, with love
For it is a journey that is worth everything.
