Life can be hard
You never know what new challenges each day gives you
You need to keep pushing through each day
But I know at least 10 things that will help me through life

You never know how much you love someone
Until you lose them
One day he was here
The other… he was gone

Money doesn’t buy happiness
No matter how rich or poor you are
The people who love you
Are the ones who matter

Life doesn’t revolve around your phone
You might feel like you need to be around it
But the only thing you need to be around,
Is your family

Moving to america allowed me to experience a new culture and way of life.
Taking risks might be scary
But that’s how you live
By experiencing new things every day

Spending time on social media
Thinking you are popular because of the amount of followers you have
Doesn’t compare at all
To the popularity you receive from your loved ones.

There is one big difference between fake friends and real friends,
Fake ones expect you to be there when they’re down,
But are never there when you need them
While real friends need you, but are also there for you

Exercising daily makes me happy
Running and showing off my soccer skills
Sometimes even going to school
Makes me happy

You can only breathe fresh air
On the countryside
Where no pollution exists
Where animals are actually happy

You know a better story
From reading a book
And learning something
Other than watching a movie

Life can be hard
But you have to push through
And live life to the fullest
No seconds to waste.
