Life can be

Life can be hard
Especially when you take a stand

Life can be tragic
Loving someone till the end

Life can be dull
If you look at it in black and white
Forgetting all the hues from heaven above

Life can be grand
Taking in moments, breathing in joy, letting go and holding on

Life is a gift, so live in the "present"
Cause' tomorrow may not come
And yesterday is gone, so learn from your mistakes
And remember lessons learned and live for today

Life is a lesson
And it's not the grade you got
But the experiences and the road you traveled on that got you there
The people you loved, the good you did, the laughter you imparted
The love you gave, the forgiveness you showed
The life you lived

Life can be-
Whatever you make of it-
