Something Old Something New

SOMETHING OLD SOMETHING NEW 
                
      Choices are old, circumstances appear new
        on journey of life: How to continue!                         
      Each has own ambition to follow on!
        Sounds good personal choice
        Loud may be individual voice
         yet exact way to implement.
        for ultimate achievement
            what is the main factor?
             Your Desire or Destiny is the dictator?

    Path of life not smooth mostly uneven
     even opportunities you be given,
      Can you utilize or to compromise?
         Are you able always to direct
             your aim with own intellect?
              Or your brain acts perfect!
           or Fate to erect hindrances with sudden high rise.

            Can you depend solely upon
           your diligence and performance
            your confidence and competence
              always running on!
         Or just to surrender to verdict of Fate!
              No choice but to accept.
