How Do We Succeed?
March 25, 2017
What is success?
Is it the knowledge
That we have put a smile
On one person’s face
Is it
To laugh
Or to cry
Or is it the knowledge
That we
Can do better
Is it
Failing
Failing
But knowing
That you tried
So
So
Hard
Is it
Making
Someone’s day
Or
The knowledge
That you have helped
By moving
One finger
Or simply parting your
Mouth
Into a
Smile
Is it
Accepting
That we will make
Mistakes
Or is it
Learning how to embrace them
Maybe
It’s both
Maybe a success
Is just
Trying
