Life has its measures of setbacks, some are small, some are large in size. There are portions of every existence, which clearly we'd like to revise. Who wrote this poem?

It's How You Cope
Author Bruce B. Wilmer

Life has its measure of setbacks
Some are small, some are larger in size.
There are portions of every existence
Which clearly we'd like to revise.

But stresses and problems are normal
Disappointments are part of the game.
If we let these moments control us,
We must assume part of the blame.

It's how we react that's important;
We mustn't distort what we feel.
Let's work with what life has to offer
And never begrudge a bad deal.

Depression can never assist us
In weathering woes on this earth.
We shouldn't let each disappointment
Give rise to more grief than it's worth.

Instead we should try to discover,
As life in intensity mounts,
A way to place things in proportion.
You see, how we cope is what counts.
