Every Fall Is a Chance To Rise

You are never defeated
Only treated to the truth!
Every fall is a chance to rise again!
Every season of life 
Should give you a reason to try again!
As you retrain your mind
And remove the blind spots that
Often plagued human lives

Every fall is a call to duty
Look straight ahead and destroy
The futility of any season
You are stronger than the storm
Getting up and trying again should be the norm
So let a fall inform you of  
The inner strength that exists in you!
In reality, every fall is a chance to rise!
You are never defeated
Only treated to the truth!
Every fall is a chance to rise again!

A very inspirational piece, Mark. And I agree...you can only be defeated if you quit and/or give up altogether. I think this should be a POTD.
