Encouraging Change

What is it that we are intellectual 
Of heart to which one lives reality 
Or soul of a being to which gives life 
We strive dreams and hopes we keep alive 
Beaten down by physical aspect of life 
We find ourselves with choice right or wrong 
Path of a road endless bumps persist 
Or do we create our own drama which we live 

Peace you find in life is not of the pleasures 
But sense of a emotion to which brings 
Love's rage it's joy always a desire 
How you perceive life your choice of attitude 
Like problems going exist, part of life 
How you handle it to rather it be a problem 
Or just another obstacle to hurl weaken knees 
The idea you plant be road to success 

Do what you always did, same results you get 
Courage to pursue the risk, fear of being wrong 
Failure not an option but choice one chooses 
As a caterpillar thought world was ending 
It turned into a butterfly and flew 
New creation of life in itself was found 
It is sacrifices to which brings opportunity 
That value that builds foundation to success
