Though their time comes ticking some keep sticking to their
Sadness their madness everywhere
Some of whom I see do not seem to want to be
Happy like I do anyway
But alongside as we are traveling so far
I see them falling and I say
Why not try your wings by new and different things?
Living giving forgiving too
And if it works for me I say it may for you
Asking as life tasks us this way
About our possibilities beyond our doubt
What we are dying to find out
But those afraid to try in their dubiety
Fall through the darkness like a star
If we fall and lose it all what we have to do
Is have to be no matter what
Time to believe in us relieve the ennui they
Defensively live fearfully
Why not let it all go? By falling so to know
Who we are before we are not
How I remember now what I never forgot
When we lose it all then we see
With nothing left to stop us we were always free

Take me and my hubby for instance, we had fallen so many times too in our lives, but we've beaten life's lowest. Like my dad, we would always rise back up to our feet; and it's a good feeling when you know you have conquered your lowest, for where else would you go but up and continue walking?
Staying in the darkness to complain about anything and everything isn't our cup of tea, and that is why my hubby and I would never let life beat us down because of our outlooks in life. We know no one would help us if we don't pull ourselves off the ground. Sometimes we just have to do that much for ourselves in order to feel good about ourselves.
