You Will Never See Me Fall

You may see me struggle 

but you won't see me fall. 

Regardless if I'm weak or not 

I'm going to stand tall. 

Everyone says life is easy 

but truly living it is not.

Times get hard, 

people struggle

and constantly get put on the spot. 

I'm going to wear the biggest smile 

even though I want to cry. 

I'm going to fight to live 

even though I'm destined to die. 

And even though it's hard 

and I may struggle through it all. 

You may see me struggle...

but you will NEVER see me fall.

Giving Our Best

Every day that we are alive,
We should be asking ourselves whether we,
Are we giving our best to each day,
This is something we may not all see.

See each day we are given is a gift,
And to waste it would be very wrong.
But our lives are just that,
Ours to do with and hope our life's long.

But that's just it, our lives may not be long,
And come to an end before we are ready.
Don't be that person, who regrets,
Live your life full and steady.

Close your eyes and go to sleep,
Knowing you've conquer your day.
You'll life will be very successful,
And you'll be happy to look back when you're gray.

"I Choose The Mountain" by Howard Simon

The low lands call 

I am tempted to answer 

They are offering me a free dwelling 

Without having to conquer

The massive mountain makes its move 

Beckoning me to ascend 

A much more difficult path 

To get up the slippery bend

I cannot choose both 

I have a choice to make 

I must be wise 

This will determine my fate

I choose, I choose the mountain 

With all its stress and strain 

Because only by climbing 

Can I rise above the plane

I choose the mountain 

And I will never stop climbing 

I choose the mountain 

And I shall forever be ascending

I choose the mountain

I Want You To Remember

When the world brings you down

And hurtful words break your heart

Don’t turn around

And walk away from who you are

Stand up for your beliefs

Trust in what you know

In yourself you’ll find strength

Not in another soul

Life is full of chances

Some you’ll surely take

Though from some you’ll learn a lesson

And those we call mistakes

Just because someone tells you

That it can’t be done

Doesn’t mean you must adhere

Or that you should give up

What I want you to remember

And hold close to your heart

Is that you can do anything

If only you try

It doesn’t matter who you are

A dream of life

When I was young--long, long ago--

I dreamed myself among the flowers;

And fancy drew the picture so,

They seemed like Fairies in their bowers.

The rose was still a rose, you know--

But yet a maid. What could I do?

You surely would not have me go,

When rosy maidens seem to woo?

My heart was gay, and 'mid the throng

I sported for an hour or two;

We danced the flowery paths along,

And did as youthful lovers do.

But sports must cease, and so I dreamed

To part with these, my fairy flowers--

But oh, how very hard it seemed

To say good-by 'mid such sweet bowers!

And one fair Maid of modest air

Gazed on me with her eye of blue;

I saw the tear-drop gathering there--

How could I say to her, Adieu!

I fondly gave my hand and heart,

And we were wed. Bright hour of youth!

How little did I think to part

With my sweet bride, whose name was Truth!

But time passed on, and Truth grew gray,

And chided, though with gentlest art:

I loved her, though I went astray,

And almost broke her faithful heart.

And then I left her, and in tears--

These could not move my hardened breast!

I wandered, and for weary years

I sought for bliss, but found no rest.

I sought--yet ever sought in vain--

To find the peace, the joy of youth:

At last, I turned me back again,

And found them with my faithful Truth.

Why Challanges/Difficulties are neccessary ?

Once a small gap appeared in the cocoon, through which the butterfly had to appear. A man, who accidentally passed by, stopped and watched how the butterfly was trying to get out of the cocoon. It took a lot of time, the butterfly was trying very hard, and the gap was as little as before. It seemed that the power would leave the butterfly soon. 

Then a man decided to help the butterfly. He took a penknife and cut the cocoon. The butterfly immediately got out, but her body was weak and feeble, and the wings were barely moving.

A man continued to watch at the butterfly, thinking that now her wings would spread and she would fly. However, that did not happen.

The rest of her life the butterfly had to drag her weak body and wings that weren’t spread. She was unable to fly, because a man who wanted to help her did not realize that an effort to enter through the narrow gap of the cocoon was necessary for the butterfly, so that the life-giving fluid would move from the body to the butterfly’s wings and that the butterfly could fly. Life forced the butterfly to leave her shell hardly, so that it would become stronger and would be able to grow and develop. 

If we were allowed to live without meeting difficulties, we would be via-ble. Life gives us challenges to make us stronger.
