How Can You Lose?

Everything is a choice...

How Can You Lose?

 

Finally enrolled in some basic classes

It’s been years since brain learning structure

Conforming to protocol in scholastic relationships

Wondering if you can sit through and entire lecture

Feeling unworthy and not quite up to normal

Education might give that extra needed measure

And if you succeed in obtaining a diploma

Knowledge gained will be cherished as a priceless treasure

 

Education is a choice…how can you lose?

 

When we walk the straight and narrow

In society we meet the opposite sex

Submitting to sexual attraction in relationships

Comparing notes from one to the next

Handsome and beauty is always on that list

And financial weight will not measure who is more and who is less

Spirit and compassion of the heart rank high

But honesty and truthfulness make them the best

 

Partners are a choice…how can you lose?

Weddings are so beautiful

Even from whence you were a child

Finding that special someone in multiple relationships

Definitely makes it all worthwhile

For women her wedding comes with passion

For men scared take it meek and mild

Speaking the wedding vows saying I do

Looking deep into each others eyes…brings the heart’s smile

 

Commitment is a choice…how can you lose?

 

Deciding on a child comes fast

For sex won’t wait it is the utmost

Reflections of your own family relationships

Feeling the love and singing it with a toast

Watch the little ones grow with such emotion

Protective but glorified with each boast

Finally they leave the home’s nest

Leaving you time to slow down and coast

 

Children are a choice…how can you lose?

Found a website called IN THE ROOMS

A recovery site that is world renowned and global

It has support groups, blogs, and video meeting relationships

For whatever your addiction made you disabled

A homepage with running constant communications

Private messaging and individual support enabled

Twenty-four hour - seven days a week

Where you can throw-out UGLY on the open table

 

Recovery is a choice…how can you lose?

 

Many years too busy to speak to God

Finally found spirit in the clouds

Reflecting on special moments of past relationships

Knowing HE sent messaging from far and a-loud

Angels of love and mercy have carried and watched over you

Now faith in you is glory found

Success in faith even in its smallest increment

Allows you to walk head high and proud

 

Faith is a choice…how can you lose?

Waking up each morning

With a smile or a frown

May cause your day or life

To go up or to go down

You can change your feelings and emotions

Don't need to act like a clown

But trust in the efforts you impose

Will make POSITIVE the sound

Attitude is a choice...how can you lose?

Well this piece took me on a journey of life and expectations to the loss as I would see with someone with addictions and the effort to pull it together. Thanks for sharing

I know from many years of bitter experience that a loser, any loser, or anyone who considers themself a loser, which is a cruel lie of the Devil, can find a way, any way, come hell, hail, or high water to lose, just to prove himself correct about what he (or she) believes. As Dan Quayle famously said, "A mind is a terrible thing..."
