SELF MADE PERSONAL INSIGHT OF WHO I AM

INSPIRATIONAL

 

i graduated from the school of hard knocks,

learned to live with the have nots,

it was every path i went down,

there stood a road block,

or just a sign telling me to stop,

 

just for the thrill of the journey,

up life's hill i kept on  climbing,

never caring if i reached the top,,

for in persevering  changes came about,

 

learned to walk before i even,

knew what it was to crawl,

kept my friends close,

and my enemy's far,far,far,

and few in between,

my philosophy has always been,

 

let the weak seek the nightmares,

while i go chasing these dreams,

some would say survival ,i learned ,

the ways,

when others gave up hope,

i clung to faith,

 

they just didn't know,

when it was darkest before the dawn,

i preyed to kingdom come,

not to go back from which i come from,

i kept my nose to the grind stone,

even when defeat wouldn't,

leave me alone,

 

wouldn't change a thing,

those times truly made me

the person i am.

yes i knew it was dark ,

when i sat out to find ,

the things for my heart,

 i wouldn't give up ,

even when my world fell apart,

made in Gods image,

tried tested and found true,

i made it Thu the bad times,

over came the blues

 

self made,high grade,

i kept the faith all the way,

self made high grade,

i kept the faith all the way,,peace wisemanspeeks@protected aka wizthom

 

 

LOVE IS THE FORCE ,THAT RULES US ALL,,

This was an interesting outlook. You've overcome obstacles to come to were you are, and you will never forget where you came from.

let the weak seek the nightmares,while i go chasing these dreams,

that line is what struck out the most to me because, only the week to me will continously stay inbetween a rock and a hard place, while the strong, or strong willed, try to get to a better place in their life.
