In life’s tumultuous river, so rough,
We navigate challenges, feeling it’s tough.
The currents pull us in directions unknown,
Yet we persevere, determined to be shown.

Life’s hurdles seem like an endless test,
Demanding strength, pushing us to our best.
But within the trials that make us sigh,
Lie opportunities for growth and wings to fly.

The dam of life holds back mighty strife,
A reservoir of lessons, shaping our life.
It strains against us, its weight immense,
Yet we gather courage, never losing sense.

For it’s in the struggle, the dam’s resistance,
That we uncover our truest existence.
The pressures mold us, shaping our core,
Building resilience, unyielding and more.

Life’s toughness reveals our inner might,
The fire within that ignites our fight.
With every setback, we find a way,
To stand tall, resilient, come what may.

So embrace the challenge, embrace the rough,
For within you, lies a spirit tough.
Together we weather the storms that come,
And find strength in the face of life’s drum.

Though life may be dam tough, my friend,
We’ll rise above, our spirits won’t bend.
For in the struggle, we learn to persist,
And discover the beauty that can’t be dismissed.
