When fate throws her cards,
And we end up in a game of odds,
The stakes high, the risks grand,
As life steps in to take command,
Our power lies not in the game,
But in how we respond to the same.
Do we cower in fear,
Fleeing from what we hold dear,
Or do we rise to the strife,
Battling for our right to life?
When all seems lost and undone,
We must take control of the one thing we own.
Within us burns a will,
A drive, an unwavering thrill,
A power to decide our fate,
To chart the course of life's debate.
When you can't control what's happening,
Challenge yourself to control the way you respond.
Life is a sea of twists and turns,
With many lessons yet to be learned,
Mysteries to unravel and secrets to seek,
Challenges to conquer and victories to reap.
The path we take is not always clear,
But in controlling our response, we overcome our fear.
Some will falter, some will fall,
But those who strive will rise above all,
For they know that life's obstacles are a test,
For those who dare to stand the quest.
In the face of adversity, they remain strong,
And their spirits rise to sing the song.
For life is not a bed of roses,
But a journey of hills and valleys to overcome,
A quest to discover and conquer,
An odyssey of life's riddles to unravel.
So when the going gets tough,
We must take control, for that's enough.
The world may throw its worst,
But in controlling our response, we quench our thirst,
For power, for strength, to face it all,
And emerge victorious, standing tall.
So let the storm rage on,
For in our response, our strength becomes born.
Let us embrace the trials we face,
For they are a stepping stone to our grace,
A chance to rise above the fray,
And take control of life's play.
For when you can't control what's happening,
Challenge yourself to control the way you respond.
In the end, it matters not,
The hand we're dealt or the battles we've fought,
For in our response, we define our soul,
And reach our destiny, our ultimate goal.
So let us march forward, strong and true,
Our spirits steadfast, our guidance anew.
For the power lies within us all,
To take on life's challenges, great and small,
And emerge triumphant, basking in glory,
Living the life, we've all envisioned as our story.
Mastering the Odyssey of Life,
Controlling our response in the face of strife,
Embracing the journey, come what may,
Living life on our own terms, every day.
