Perseverance is Strength

If you really want something you’ll keep going until it happens. This Stream of water knew no timeline or deadline…it just kept going until it cut through that rock. Years and years later…it’s still successful.

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”

Writer, C.S. Lewis

Your action for today is to set a new goal and be sure you include a deadline. Persecerance is Strength.

“Look at me, The Elephant Tree”

Love this Kevin Walsh…that’s my favorite line in your poem.

Everyone check out Kevin’s poem below. Fun!

Kevin Walsh:

that you might get close to the sun
I rose up on two mighty legs.
these grey bones joined together
with a dozen tiny white pegs.
look at me, the elephant tree
with you climbing up through my limbs,
a shapely fruit rising toward heaven
as the sun slowly dims.
is this what it took
to get me off of my feet?
was it you that I rose for
amidst this dirt covered street?
i learned something that day
stretched tall with you held so high.
i learned that in holding you up
i too touched the sky.

Love this Kevin Walsh!
-It’s very thoughtful!*

By Kevin Walsh,

“Is there a chunk of rock out there
that sits higher than the moon?
perhaps a ragged planet
shaped more like a balloon….
is there a man who lives there keeping
my moon hanging from a rope?
some sage-like crazy poet
who on his lonely ball can cope.
gazing towards the stars at night
my thoughts are filled with hope….
thinking maybe the lonely mystic
can somehow read my mind,
and in those floating thoughts of mine
some kind of light he’ll find.
a bit of love perhaps will make
his world a brighter place.
would thoughts of me looking upward
put a smile upon his face.
can he feel me down here waiting
in a state of grace,
oh, these silly girlish thoughts
do indeed make my heart race.”
