Doubt
For you to feel as you feel right
Who are you to doubt who you are
And what you can do?
It is not for you to judge yourself
But to push beyond all you can try.
Life will throw rocks your way
But it is up to you to shield what is there.
Only you can tackle life’s problems.
Others can share, guide and advise
But it is you that must act.
Only when doubt creeps in and darkness threatens
Can a character be truly tested.
Who are you to be?
You can hide behind doors of sorrow
Or face the day and live for tomorrow.
Choice will cause doubt
But knowledge of your choices can create opportunities.
A wrong choice is not a mistake
But a lesson that had to be learned.
When you can look back at what caused judgement,
Smile at its memory and say you are better for it
Then you have grown into the person you were meant to be.
And it is only when you have become that person
That doubt will become your friend
And you realise that you are better for it.
