Sometimes our best intentions miss the impossible target-perfection Sometimes our best efforts leave us hopeless and contemplating defection Sometimes our goal of being everything to everybody misses the target so that we feel we give very little to anybody Oftentimes we must stop to refuel our bodies and our minds so that when we are engaged in lifting up we do not leave ourselves...

Life is a brief span; seize tight each passing moment, For yesterday's pain should reflect in your sight, To map out your routines after your heart's consent, Thus, paving a way to banish your plight.
