Intent of poem: To raise awareness of the importance of choosing an “Up” attitude as opposed to a “Down” attitude!
We all have
Good days and bad days,
Our ups and our downs!
Authors meaning: In life you have two choices to respond with either an attitude of “Up” or “Down”.
Nothing in life is permanent, neither “ups” nor “downs”,
Everything is in a state of constant transition.
We all have our ups and our downs!
Authors meaning: You cannot absolutely control change but you can cooperate and respond positively to it.
Change is an agent of evolution,
It constantly affects everyone silently day by day.
We all have our ups and our downs!
Authors meaning: How you respond to the evolution of your life is totally your choice.
No one can deny that change is a daily companion,
It constantly demands a response.
We all have our ups and our downs!
Authors meaning: Choosing an up attitude helps you cooperate with change; choosing down, defeats you!
Each day you have opportunities to work positively with change or not!
Your choices are either with an “up” or a “down” attitude.
We all have our ups and our downs!
Authors meaning: No one is absolutely alone! You are an essential part of humanity and others depend on your understanding, valuing, caring and respect.
Befriending “Change” with a positive “up” attitude,
Engages an intuitive “if it is to be, it is up to me” source of power!
We all have our good days and our bad days.
Authors meaning: We all have free will to choose either an “up” or “down” attitude.
Envoi: Authors comment:
“Up” or “Down”: You win or we lose with the attitude you choose! Choosing “Up” gives you a chance to change positively. Choosing “Down“ guarantees things will get worse. Please choose wisely because it makes a difference to everyone and everything in the world, especially your own self.

P.S. Best of luck in developing and sustaining an “Up” response whenever disappointment, occasional misfortune or disagreements with others upsets your sense of wellbeing! And, day by day, may you always be fresh and blooming! ?
