ANALYSING

We don't know where we're going to 
"Heaven or hell"
But we know where we're coming from 
We know our roots, our very foundation 
We don't know what the future holds for us
But we're not the substance of our circumstances.

We don't know how long
But we know it is certain 
Because change occurs anytime 
It's not very fast, but it's steady 
Because what comes faster, goes sooner 
What comes slowly, stays longer.

We don't know how big it is
But we know it can never be small
Because we've never played the mediocre 
Never settle for anything if not the best 
What it takes to do big, is also what it takes to do small
Discipline and determination makes the difference.
