Leadership

Leadership

Every hour, every minute 
One life begins, one life ends and another submits 
A vision gets shaped, a dream turned into reality 
For many to believe and for the lucky ones to see 
The creation of a person, the one that’s going to lead 
 
Someone who raises a hand 
A hand he or she places on whoever wants to follow 
A voice that doesn’t change even if many choose to ignore his or her 
A woman of faith, a man of the people 
Someone who rather supports then to bring sorrow 
 
Every hour, every minute 
One life begins, one life ends and another submits 
A fear gets conquered, a nightmare completely destroyed 
Many defeats turned into multiple victories  
A million sad faces turned into smiling ones, all that for the entire world to see 
 
Someone who cries amongst the weak 
Tears worthy to be kept within a bottle for all eternity 
As they are precious and valuable 
Someone who learns amongst the strong 
Learning that with every decision made something can go wrong 
 
Every hour, every minute 
One life begins, one life ends and another submits 
All known that even the greatest amongst men or women one day will fall 
But their deaths forever shall have and carry a meaning 
As they were more than just a mere being 
 
Someone who willingly accepted to complete the most difficult task 
To bring peace and order without taking too much control 
Who didn’t just saw people, but counted every single soul
And when mistaken put the blame entirely on his or her own
As the people's spirit is that what should never really die
But loved and kept within their hearts, even shared with each other from time to time

Because that's what a true leader is
Someone who doesn't want to be the reason
But whose being a part of the reason
That makes people never forget that whoever is born a new or laying on his death bed
Also had an impact of how we stand together today

Like a single bubble floating... in thin air
One that's never going to pop, cause it's sole purpose is survival

Nice write! I believe a true leader, is a servant leader. One who simply serves the people without compensation, but supports him or her self while leading. My belief is the Savior is always the perfect example. all the best!........................Jim
