Build Upon Yourself

Never be content with where you are in your life
and always be hungry for more
Pushing yourself to be better day in and day out
prepares you to be ready for
when life hits you day after day with endless challenges
Striving to bring out the best in all your faculties
helps to bring stability and clarity
in times of darkness and confusion
So be vigilant in improving your strength of character,
it will be the major factor in a successful outcome

Mid-Life Reflections #11

As I get older, the more wiser I become.  It’s strange to say that because I’ve come to the realization that life teaches you many things.  It helps you build strength, character and resolve.  But in all my years, at home, work, school, outings with friends, just life in general,  I’ve learned that it was important for me to stay true to this one quote, “It’s easy to say and harder to do, so follow through on your actions and be a person of your word.”
