A young man sets out on a quest In search of life's ultimate test Seeking purpose, seeking worth To find the value of his birth He wanders far and wanders wide His heart and soul are open wide He learns from every step he takes And every lesson that he makes At last he finds the truth he sought The answer that he long had sought That all his struggles, all his pain Had brought him to this very gain For in the end, he now perceives That all the joy and all the griefs Are what make him who he is today The sum of all his experiences, he' ll say And so the young man comes to see That his worth is found in simply being That the purpose of his life, it seems Is to live it fully, chase his dreams
