Make Your Own Way

Make your Own Way Can you stand alone and be strong? Can you make your choices all along? I know you're full-grown and wise, To make decisions that are nice." But it seems like you’re not happy Seeing someone’s victory When others achieve and find success You feel left behind and under duress Imagine a horse racing in a game It needs speed just to win See how tired this kind of competition If you depend on others situation. Living in this world is not a race And each one has their own unique pace Comparing yourself will only bring pain And hinder your progress, in vain Don't envy others' achievements, Because God gave us diverse talents. Don't covet what other people have Instead, salute them with all your heart. A successful person doesn’t envy But fashion his best effort and way Let them be your inspiration As you strive to fulfill your ambition

I really like the message you are trying to convey through this poem, but jealousy is in human nature, you can t get rid of jt, whenever someone is better than you, you ll always be jealous, and now a days life is a competition, if you didn t run fast, you ll be crushed, although our main purpose of life is to do good deeds and make God pleased but apparently no one remembers it now, for them worldly wealth and success is everything, I just hope that every person should remember their purpose
