If challenged, I will endure.
If distracted, I will revert.
Whether doubted or hated or misunderstood I will make known, if only to myself.
I will seek the examples to follow and then become an example to follow.
I will inspire.
I will not flinch though, when I flinch it will be of no importance.
My ears will be deaf to sarcasm.
My character infallible to mockery.
My heart hardened to guilt, tempered to pity and I will succeed by any definition of success I determine.
I will work hard long and effective hours.
My challenges will teach me more than my triumphs while the light of my achievements will squelch the shadows of my obstacles.
I will spread beauty in the face of neglect.
I will sing songs in the air of apathy.
I will shine like ALL MEN are intended to do and when I am gone, there will be no longing question of why?
For my work, will extend from near to far behind.I will leave my pain and frustration in the lonely spaces that others have attempted to force my ambitions.
What I believe will be verified.
What I neglect will fade.
Like weapon of war I will be defiant in composition and effectiveness.
Like the seeds of my own sustenance I will be delicate and fertile.
And, like the oldest and most fruitful of trees, the roots of understanding will equal the extent of my reach upward.Whether Misunderstood,
Whether Loved,
I will be known.
