Life is like a game of Ping Pong - unforced errors and huge slams!
One may simply need to re-invent the wheel,
From time to time;
When the suggestions seem outrageous,
One can’t help but complain;
But they say that everything will work out, just trust us! 
Life progresses like a Ping Pong match –
The plastic white ball is batted back and forth till
It falls off the table or zooms into the net –
Unforced errors and huge slams usually
Determine the winner.
Such is the case in life, as well –
Accumulate enough points and you are a winner;
Lose too many,
And you must work at improving during the next match…
I’m not too good at Ping Pong,
But I can take a deep breath and feel very fortunate
To have played.
Because one must breathe and feel lucky sometimes!
