In the Light of My Soul
If I tell you the story of old, of how one tiny dream come into being and changed the race forever with just a silent whisper, would you believe me? If I tell you the story of how the sun and the moon met and how the dragon drove the killer sharks out of the sea, would you believe me?, it sound like myth to me and am sure the universe would agree that wisdom is baked into the reality of the time and the silent whisper becomes words of courage in my mind.
If I tell you how I achieved my dreams when all hopes were dead and everyone was staring at the "living" in that rundown dilapidated building, with rats and roaches running inside and flies crusading in the ceiling would you believe me?
It is the part of the plot that is hard to piece together and the struggle has change my life forever, I kept working when there seemed to be no hope and the water was purified without a doubt, I could see my reflection all the way in the river bed and I was positive that my dreams were not dead, I have put on a couple age to my years but I am fit and ready for the big change.
If I tell you how the honey bee kept buzzing in my ears, with a private message that no one should hear, it sets the precedence for the day and all those that looked at me were amazed to see me, the comeback was huge and I kept climbing up the mountain with a golden shoes, nothing could stop me from progressing, and the wind was carrying me and this is what energize and motivates me.
I started on the mat and make my way to the top. Would you believe me if I tell you that I worked out at the gym sometimes, to get my muscles in line and now I am flying like a world wind, and my adrenalin is flowing.I lay my mat flat on the ground and I work up all the energy that could be found, I stretch and I swing until my muscles were flexible to go back into the ring.
I did not have a sophisticated room to complete all the routines but I practice inside out and I could feel the energy floating about, where it came from, I just could not tell but all of a sudden it came like a lightning bolt burning with passion in my soul and I was ready for every challenge they erect in front of me, I scale over them to the highest degree.
If I tell you how despair transform the bleakly night into dawn and how the wilderness came to light when I almost lost the "fight", and how I overcome the static moment when all eyes were on me and my body continues to tremble and freeze; it was a miracle from the sun and glory that competed the run and I kept my eyes on it and I finally achieved it.
In the light of my soul there is a miracle to behold.
