Feet Made of Clay

Feet Made of Clay Hear ye this great truth, one I was very blessed to find carried deeply within my heart , ever present on my mind Far better to die fighting, going down the very first day than live wealthy and long , standing on feet made of clay Set your principles in stone and on your courage always depend truth and honor are eternal while short are lives of mortal men Fear not failure, for it is often still the mark of valiant deeds born of love, courage and mercy sprung from the smallest of seeds Struggle to stay true to gentle mercies and voices of the right yet never refuse to fight for righteous truth every day and night Give freedom the very high road and injustice ever bar it's way marching strong on steely resolve and never on feet made of clay! Seek diligently for the essence of ALL that is so very , very right once blessedly found , hold on dearly and never ever lose sight! Robert L. 05-30-2014

I love the title..:) feet of clay, a clay that can be molded and be formed into many ways.. And the way you portray it in your write, a right to left molding and at the end you didn't settle for being molded more rather you aimed for a sturdy ending on which a clay also can be so solid when it goes well with the different stages resulting to something tough..:) great great write..:) hugs friend
