Achievement

Achievement Achievement… Is not basking in the glory It is The glory of the endeavour Achievement… Is not public acclaim Rather, it is Personal vindication Achievement… Is not looking back with pride It is The satisfaction of moving on Achievement is… Realizing a goal set, Fulfilling one’s potential, Hurdling over an obstacle The success of one’s dream Perseverance over failure Accomplishment against the odds A step in the right direction The triumph of one’s spirit Achievement is… The reality of a dream That was, once, shaken out of its trance.
