In life, there are things that can be tough,
Like homework, tests, and other stuff,
But remember to always try your best,
Even when things seem like a difficult test.

As we grow, we develop new skills,
Like riding a bike, or paying bills,
We learn to write, read and do math,
And that's just the beginning of our path.

Every day, we depend on each other,
Our family, friends, and sisters and brothers,
We need their support and love to thrive,
And help us grow and feel alive.

At dinner time, we come together,
To eat and talk and be with each other,
We share our stories, and our dreams,
And try new foods, or so it seems.

Sometimes, life can go in different directions,
And we might face challenges and difficult sections,
But it's important to keep going and try,
To not give up or let our dreams die.

We should never seek to destroy or hurt,
But always show kindness and love, that's our worth,
And when we work hard, and do our best,
We'll find success and overcome any test.

So whether we're at our desk or at play,
Let's be kind, work hard, and seize the day,
And always remember the lessons we've learned,
As we continue on this journey, and grow in turn.
