Living Balance Poem by Linda Anguiano

What are success, stability, & happiness ask yourself?

Through the days I was a child it was not easy you may say.
A unique person like you and I are very different.
We want the same common goal, life with balance.

In order to have balance.
You must have knowledge, experience, and self-motivation.
To keep moving forward overcoming the challenges of life.
Since birth and we lived a challenging life.
That only we as individuals understand.

Every life is very different from one another.
We might go through the same obstacles in life.
But in life we are very different in many ways.
Many ways that you and I can’t believe.
Through our eyes we can’t imagine.
What is out there waiting to be discovered, ready to expand our minds.

The best thing in life is we live with people who love and care for us.
The people who gave us life,
The people who have been there for us in the best and the worst of the times,
The people who help us no matter what type of trouble you are going through,
The people who have been there to teach us to be successful in life.
Especially the teachers at your schools such as eCALS.

Life has its up and downs but we strive for happiness and peace.
In life no matter how much money you have.
Money has value in society but in reality it does not.
Money is just a piece of paper able to rip easily.

In this modern society we all wish to have all the money in the world.
In order to pay for what we all desire to have.
But in reality money is not what we wish for.
Money is not the true happiness we seek for or hope.
Money is just an object that you can hold with a hand and able to rip in pieces.

As Humans we strive for the best, the best for the next generation.
Through life we make our own destiny.
Never be bullied into silence, Never allow yourself be made a victim, Accept no one’s definition of your life; Define yourself.
