The past is a platform to climb on higher not a monumental regret to lie on. Everyday is a new beginning.
I’ve fallen and derailed,
It’s time to focus;
*
I’ve slept and snored,
It’s time to wake;
*
I’ve looked on and waited for long,
It’s time to act;
*
I’ve crawled and walked,
It’s time to fly.

The length of our trials can distract from our success.
Open eyes, open mind, open heart – our future to readdress.
