The basketball of life


Life is like a basketball, you dribble your way through the court As you dribble your way through situations. Pump faking your shots As you pretend with your real feelings. Regardless of missing multiple shots, you must keep shooting, get up when you fall down, and move on because one day you will make it!! As the buzzer ticks so does your time on earth, shoot wisely as if it was your last. Follow through to score victoriously as you follow the path that guides you to a successful and happy life in the future. To some it is just a game but... Basketball is LIFE & LIFE is basketball
