the man I strive to be

I pray each day with both feet foward on the journey of rivers

that the burdens I bear produce the right fruit

to give me the strength I need to keep foward

I know life to be difficult and fraught with impossibilities

It is with this I turn to my left and rely on those who walk this path with me

so I may raise them up so we may all gain ever greater hights

my ficcade of ignorence I once bore is no more

for I can bare no wasted strenth on the journey in life I take

for it will only further burden those who walk with me

with each breath I take more life is wasted so I must measure carefully and life my life to it's fullest. I call it the journey of rivers because life is always changing and ever growing.

there are those that would strike at me with bitter hatred and fearful hesitation and they will only meet a wall in their life as they fall behind as I move foward along the river I go.
