Coxswain

Morale Booster

We can choose the life we want to live...there is always a choice...and it is ours to make. 
We are responsible for the situation we are in...all it takes is a slow deep breathe-in and out...reflective mind delving slowly but surely on scrambled thoughts... a moment of calmness, sheer willpower to turn the tide...deciding once and for all if prison is home or home is prison (likewise for physical places like office and others , relationships, states of mind and situations) 
We are destined to live, grow and die on this Rock...and perhaps rise again, soaring up to greater heights or falling lower down to fathomless depths...and if they turn out to be really Ecstasy and depression ...then I am happy the way I am living in the world of the living...not living amidst the dead or dying in the realm of immortals.
No one can change your destiny not even your parents, though they might be the nearest ones you have known and are to the thought of God. 
No one can do it better than you-Being the Coxswain of every situation...ferrying through the waters of life!

our destiny is in our own hands, and we can make the most of life, or not....doesn't depend on anyone else, it is our own choices...we ferry ourselves to whatever shore we choose, and need to make the most out of each island upon which we step...love this...nice allegory....in first line it is just "ours"...no apostrophe...
but such a poem!
