Someday

Someday

Success is not a destination, son.
It is the journey and competition while running through your lanes of life.
Your journey of succes has already begun. It happens with your notice not, even.
For what your parents could do is to build the platform, greater possible.
Thus in future, you can take off and fly by spreading your own wings.
Freely, high. Up above the skies. Anywhere, everywhere, anytime
while being of such a wise, victorious man. Someday.

Amin.

The Introduction

Take A Break

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.
