Notes About The Poem

My Personal Mission

How grateful I am Having been created to be always In the heart of Jesus; He poured out through me, His unconditional love To my family, friends Students and to everyone. Career is my precious gift, It's the greatest fulfillment. From Him, I had received; In this way, I can serve Him As long as I live, To mold the young minds For world's future sake. I will always be a committed mentor, With lots of patience, love And bunches of care; Share all my knowledge and skills To the best I can, Leading my students To God in prayer. As eldest in the family, I'll also take enough responsibility, To help my parents and brothers In any way, Serving them to the fullest, While still young and unmarried. I'll go on in life's struggle, If there are barriers, I will not give up whatever matters. Give my love even until it hurts, Ti's life's essence in this world, To love and serve, I truly believe Is my mission on earth.

Quite a mission. This would be a better world if everyone was on the same mission.

Hi Leonora, sometimes when i do not know a poet i comment small.. looking back at my comment on this page ... he he he... by the way I like your comment on my "Depression Tendency" poem. I was going through twisted feelings. Actually that poem was a challenge. About your poem: I see and feel much in here. I yet have not found my mission. I wish i could be sure of my path, like your ending here. I'm a mother and even now the responsibility never ends. Nice mission you endure, xox~LINDA

It's great to know one's mission in life. I too am a teacher but I do not take it as my main mission. Wish I could get more involved in poetry mentoring instead. Sounds you really got inspired by your faculty retreat of '98!!

This poem was written last year 1998 during our teacher's Catholic Recollection. I composed it when we were ask to write something about our mission. So, I decided to compose a poem instead of a paragraph or an essay to read or share.
