Humility Takes You a Long Way

Each morning as i wake I remember that it isn't just a day. Reminisces begin to fall As I remember it all. I take a moment to cuddle in bed And I remember the days when I was just a child, When I was twelve, and gone to secondary school. My parents stood by me all the way. At twenty, I hit the cities to survive I remember too many to mention, So I travelled to towns and cities, I roamed. Living in uncles houses, or friends' balconies. A cast away, with nobody to go to. I never made the mistake of youth To become a thief, drug addicts or such vices. My life holds value to good friends, In them I found assistance. To me a wonder, How I survived. I have become a name, alive Instead of merely surviving. Remember then my life experiences, and you too Never get too big that you forget how you got here. As humility takes you a long way in life.
