From Hanting.

Every Joy Not Cherished...
Come now, dab those tears away
Put those gloomy thoughts aside
With an open mind hear what I have to say
It's only assistance I'm trying to provide

Life can suck pretty much sometimes
Some even say it's a mother dog
Unpleasantly sour like an unripe lime
Unbearably torturous as an after-meal jog

No doubt the odds against you are stacked real high
And most things seem quite unfair
No certainties upon which to rely
It's no surprise there's no end of grievances to air


But here's the all-important bit
The part that can set you aside from the rest
Though fully appreciating it is tough, I admit
Once you do Life's problems will cease to be a mess

It's simply recognizing that your attitude
Belongs to you and you alone
And since to you it's in servitude
You can change its quality, character and tone

Learn to cherish the good things that happen
For every joy not cherished is a joy lost
And in a world already sorrow overladen
Could you afford to bear this cost?

Don't lose hope and you can't go wrong
Keep on fighting for what's important to you
Wallowing in self-pity's fine but don't wallow too long
Especially when there's so much to do!

Remember that Life's not a journey
Meant to be completed alone in a day
There's friends, family, a trainee-attorney
Who'll be there every step of the way

By Hanting

I know many trainee-attorneys. haha:)
