We are successful   the moment we start toward     a laudable goal

Footsteps of success,   are trailed by fading footprints,     of failures past..

The world around us   conforms to expectations      we place upon it.

Life without challenge    is life denied any chance      for one to achieve.

We wear many things,   but that with greatest import     is our expression.

Stretched by an idea,   we can aspire to new heights,     new ways of thinking.

Absence of problems   does not lead to happiness.     Dealing with them does.

Some believe they can,   Some believe that they cannot.      Both are clearly right

Anyone can talk,   but to listen is a gift,     we should all exchange
