Two sides of a coin

They said you can achieve anything you want

But they also said some people will try to hold you back

They said you can make it in life

But they also said there will be obstacles on the road to success

They said be positive

But they also said it’s easier said than done

They said friends are there to catch you when you fall

But they also said some friends will make or watch you fall

They said money makes the world go round

But they also said money is the root of all evil

They said you just have to be yourself

But they also said some people will not accept you as you are

They said love conquers all

But they also said true love is hard to find

They said you can’t have it all

But they also said some people will still be jealous of you even though they have more

They said you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover

But they also said you’ll be addressed the way you are dressed

They said it’s beautiful

Yet, they said it’s not a bed of roses

Life could be fun, tough, complicated, sweet and unfair sometimes, depending on how we see it

That’s what makes it beautiful
