The Journey

It is through hard work and determination that we are given wings to fly after our lofty dreams. It is through pain and suffering that we gain wisdom to better ourselves for the coming times. It is through courage and hope that we are gifted strength to weather the the never ending storm. Day by day night after night we drift ever down the waters of time finding ourselves at the mercy of her current. yet it is those who would take up the paddle that find themselves on the path to their destiny. Ask not what the world can do to save you when times grow tough for it is by your hand alone the switch is thrown and the shadows of doubt are cast out. Fear not that you are small for the will of one can sway the hearts of thousands. Wait not for a master to steer your tiny ship on the river of life when it is by your hand the feathers are assembled.
