I could have majored in phylosophy

The super psalm of life [ with all respect to HG longfellow, or was it wadsworth]

The paper is not over
The test is still going on
you may think he lost you
But faith is still going strong

Spare your mind the trauma
ease you internal pain
change the things you fear
and see the peace you gain

Try to pray for six months
Chuck it, if it doesn’t work
try the power of magic
test it for whatever it’s worth

Make a choice and live it
plan a path and tread
Keep in mind to hear someday
all the things you’ve said

Dream of better options
even when none exists
shun the pessimism
self pity resist

Choose for life while you can
before life chooses for you
Take the task head on
accept what is true

If all of this sounds too much
close your eyes and sing a song
live that note and melody
coz it will carry you along
