Lesson From Oscar De La Hoya Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Life is ten percent of what happens to you
And the ninety percent of how you react
Choices make what soon becomes of you
And that my friend, is the undeniable fact.

Choices can make or break the man you are
And no one else is responsible for your life
Family will reinforce your choice so far
Still you have the will to grow or stay in strife.









'Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it'
(Chuck Swindoll)
