Excellence

Caring when others think it makes no sense, and when you are accused of being dense. Some may even think that you are not wise, while others may your caring ways despise. Risking when others think it is not safe, even when your riskiness makes them chafe. When others describe you as being mad, their negative words do not make you sad. Dreaming beyond what others think is real, and being ready to dig in your heel. Pushing the bounds of the practical realm, and standing strong when you are at the helm. Expecting what may seem impossible, and not ever creating a big fuss. Seeing what to others may be unseen, with an inner vision that is so keen. Performing always at a high level, while mates in mediocrity revel. Ever striving to be the best you can, and making the most of your short lifespan. Striving for continuous improvement, as onward, upward through this life you move. Never settling for less than the best, these are the stepping stones to reach the crest.
