Life Is Good Poem by Lavigne Kin

Things aren't perfect. I am still the clumsy
old me. I don't have many people whom I
can count on. All the old friendships are
worn out, the new ones are tough to keep
up with. I am not doing great things or
crossing milestones everyday. I am moving
at a snails pace. Things have been off track
for a while now.
But, Life Is Good! It is amazing. I have
evolved as a person. I am more mature
and focused in life than I was ever before.
Amidst those bad days, I have my own
good little moments which kind of make up
for the loss. I may not have many friends,
but the ones that I have are there for me
forever. There is a positive side to
everything in life, which easily outweighs
the negatives, provided we notice it.

No one has that perfect life which begins
with 'Once upon a time' and ends with
'Happily ever after'. Life begins with
'Welcome to the struggle' and ends with
'You are lucky to have survived the
journey'. This is how things go. As we grow
up, we learn to accept that we always
cannot have everything that we want in
life. People take a lot of time in doing that.
People are so busy nagging about what
'could have been' that they many-a-times
fail to notice what 'actually is'.
Life isn't about that one big moment that
brings you fame. It is about millions of
those little moments that bring happiness
and joy. Another rule about life is that
nothing is permanent. Happiness won't
last forever, the same is with sorrow. So,
make the most of your good times for they
will pass away soon. And smile through the
bad times for they aren't here forever too.
'To live is the rarest thing in the world.
Most people exist, that is all.'
