The Hardest Challenge Brought Out the Best In Me

Life is not a simple path It has many twists and turns Neither it is a bed of flowers It gives you very painful burns. Challenges are a part of life There are many crossroads in the way But we are the fighters of our life And we will win at the end of the day. I still remember those odd times Which are now the olden days But they taught me the rules of life My very precious golden days. Those are the times when I sat alone My life was full of depression I had forgotten the faces with Beautiful smiling expression. I thought to end my life that day With my courage being very low But something happened that very day That my heart replied to me a NO! I saw an ant climbing up the wall It failed every time it climbed But failure was it’s biggest strength It didn’t stop to fight It failed to climb several times But never say down to cry It’s potential was not so weak It gave every time it’s best try. Finally it climbed up the wall Which left me shocked and stun That day I realised the fact Life is a race and you have to run. I won over my mental depression And came out with a smiling face again I regained my inner strength To forget my old pains. Nothing is impossible To which I totally agree The hardest challenge of my life Brought out the best in me. Contest : In honour of Charles Wesley Sponsor : Kim Rodrigues
