The journey is difficult Inspired by hope and Nurtured by perseverance The thorny terrain is navigable.
The terrain It encompasses The gamut of our human experience: From the tremors of fear To the citadel of hope From the pains of failure To the screams of success From the trials of our woes To the tribulations of our apathy
And from the house of our joyful laughter To the bottomless pit of our nagging sorrow.
What do we achieve At the end of the Journey?
Conversely, what inspires: Our motivation Our sense of purpose At the start of the journey?
As we navigate The steep sloping terrain The end is less justifiable
As we navigate The steep slooping terrain Our purpose becomes cumbersome
Our motivation appears questionable
But our rocky conviction Our pillar of sacrifice Keep the faith of the journey Where the journey’s fate is more perilous.
