How Do You See Success
When you sit in your office chair
Always doing what you are told
You wonder, is this all there is
‘Till the day you finally grow old?
Does what you do really matter
And you think, as you plod along
You say that you’re not a success
But this I say, you are so wrong…
For when you help your fellow man
Because they need a friendly hand
Continue to stand by their side
As time passed by like sifting sand
Their days were made better by you
When you made their load much lighter
Count your success by your actions
You’ll find your outlook much brighter.
We can’t all be famous or rich
In our lifetime here on this earth
When your soul comforts another
In Heaven’s where you’ll find your worth.
