Situation Excellent Poem by John Ackerman

Sometimes in life's battles we can feel
As if we are losing on every front
family discord, business setbacks,
can put a pessimistic spin on the way we look at life
God can use our trials to work for are good
In spite of the pain they bring
We can turn things around in life
Let's sing to make melody in are heart
live each day in a very beautiful way
fill your heart with song to sing along
choose to become a beacon of light
to a hurting world in need of love
happiness, isn't that something we all want
searching for it in things like love
significance, a comfortable home and good food, a good job and faithful friends
seek for a situation excellenct
do not join in the social resistance
close the gap between love and hate
just call it fate
at the first battle of the Marne
during World War I, French Lieutenant General Ferdinand Foch sent out this message:
' My center is giving way, my right is retreating. Situation Excellent I am attacking'.
His willingness to see hope in a tough situation eventually led to victory for his troops.
