When cruel world beats at my back

Makes me wonder what I lack

Do I need to take this flack?

Or can I find a new track?

Each step is to educate

Library is my first date

Internet also awaits

Try to figure out truth state

Options I don't always like

Sometimes need to take a hike

Tears flow like a leaking dike

Walk until decision strikes

Now is not the time to shirk

Come up with a plan that works

Each weekend address plan's quirks

Do not let bad feelings lurk

Step by step I work my plan

Fine tune the plan when I can

When I reach my final stand

Life may feel a little grand
