Life's Racquet - Visitor's Poem

by Shawntel
(Philippines)

Life is a badminton game
There really is no safe place
No safe shot
Your racquet is your weapon,
Your skill is your power
Like life, there will always be a winner
There will always be a loser
We will all have our specialties and our difficulties
Our supporters, our parents, our coaches
They will always be there to help us,
To guide us.
It's our choice if we're going to follow them or not
Also, like life, it's hard to defend facing back, seemingly unprepared
At the same time it's hard to attack with doubt
So get up and fight.
Never give up cause'
There will come a time when you'll be the star
But always remember in life, in the game or
Anywhere else...
Offer everything you do to God whether Catholic, Buddhist, Hindu, etc.
