Motivation

It starts from within that we must be strong to reach our goals

So, deep that it comes from the soul

That no matter how slow the process may be

That life becomes alive when we let our mind free

There’s no need to look for others to push you

Because not everyone is able to fill your shoe

Life comes with ups and downs

So many smiles and frowns

Motivation is more than getting the job done

But laughter compassionate and having fun

When you feel that you want to give up on you

That is the day you will leave someone sad and blue

Accomplishing as well as learning leads to success

Then that’s when you can realize that you’re truly blessed!

I wrote this for an older man I met with Schizophrenia who wrote books before

Now his mind comes and goes yet he is an intelligent man

I would sit and talk with him… he spoke words I choose not to ignore

Only a crazy man looks dumb to someone who judges without knowing

When a person can motivate you while they are fighting their own battles…is rare

Sometimes inspiration comes from others who want you to succeed

Take their words into consideration…they really do care

Fall but never stay there…you will never grow if you do

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall- Confucius

It is written that it is you…your gift is within…it is your view
