Your Success Story

Pain...It makes some strong and gets the best of others. We all go through the "rain" weather it be physical, spiritually, or emotionally. But today... today we are not even going to talk about how you are upset your boyfriend is not acting right, or how you don't know if you can make it through school because your money is looking a little funny and your grandmother is sick. We are not going to talk about how you are just trying to get on the right track but you can never get the lucky break, or how you lost your job and its hard trying to find another, but the bills haven't stop coming in and your "little one" is crying due to hunger pains. NOO NONE OF THAT TALK TODAY! Today we are talking about you and your success story!!

Stand up and scream loud,

You made it another day...BE PROUD!!

I know it may seem things are not going you way,

And keep praying is what the pastor say.

But you feel praying is becoming a closed road,

You just want everything to be easy because you don’t deserve this heavy load.

But your a solider on the front line in the world’s biggest army.

They try and tell you, you can’t...You can be all you want to be.

Lift your head up wash away those tears,

Your too strong and powerful to have those fears.

You have the heart of a mighty lion,

You have the the broad wings of a wounded hawk who keeps flying.

Your legs are strong enough to hold the biggest object,

Your mind can evaluate, solve,and present the toughest project.

Your hands can grab those in need,

Your body leaks strength when it bleeds.

Do not look down on your life,

I know it may seem life is similar eating steak with a plastic butter knife.

But look at you...Look how far you have come,

Everybody doe not make it this far...only some.

Here I will toast with you

This is a toast to you, you, and you.

Through all your struggles and pain,

You still find a way to withstand all the rain.

You are a teacher amongst students,

You are a purifier amongst pollutants.

You are the light that brightens the night,

You are the jab that wins the heavyweight fight.

You put the “G” in glory,

For this is your success story!
