You are in a fight,
Regardless if you want to be in one or not.
A fight for your life
But,
its life that you must fight against.
LIfe will hit you with the jab,
make you back up.
Hit you with the jab again
Right between the eyes.
And again,
Right in the eye socket.
Your face will swell.
You will be dazed with every punch.
And then,
Life will land the cross.
It’s up to you to decide to take a step forward
And confront life.
Or you can keep getting pushed back.
Beat up.
Beaten.
Defeated.
In a shell of cowardly defense.
You have to defend your life with your life.
Because your life is worth living.
Throw the jab back every time life throws one at you.
You must.
You must fight back
Or life will kill you
And you will die never having lived.
And that is the saddest tragedy of life.
Live.
Fight.
If life throws the cross.
Slip and fire back.
Counter.
Move.
Fight.
Go forward.
Push life backwards.
Set your feet
And fire back.
Fire back with everything in you.
Look directly into the eyes of life.
Look directly at your target
And fight back.
Jab
And jab again
Keep jabbing
Fill life’s face with jabs
Light life up
