Things may appear to be tough
But, you have to hang in there
Embrace those challenges that life throws at you
Build strength in order to persevere
Walk one step at a time
And monitor your progress
Rise above those dark clouds
Continue on your path to success

You may take a tumble
But, do not ever quit
Rise up through the air
Just keep at it
Build up your strength, confidence and courage
Be a resilient warrior
Follow on your dreams
In order to travel far

Be willing to try
Continue to push harder
Work towards your goals
Make your world brighter
The journey is never easy
You may take a tumble before you rise
Always think grand thoughts
Keep your eyes on the prize

Always write to inspire
Encourage, enlighten and empower
Be that positive motivating force
Every minute and hour
Teach the youths how to live
Give them guidance in order to thrive
Show them how to find their inner strength
In order to survive

It has been seventeen years
Since that dreadful morning
Thousands lost their lives unexpectedly
Hearts are still grieving
The events that took place on that day
Sadly presented turmoil and corruption
The entire universe shook badly
As we all witnessed the confusion and frustration
As planes crashed
And buildings started to fall
Everyone watched in horror
As our backs were against the wall
A sullen mood sadly appeared
Many people cried lots of tears
Such acrimony and melancholy still lingers
After all of these years

Sometimes we search for answers
That we can not find
So cryptic and puzzling
And justifiably unkind
Pain and darkness rears its ugly head
This is quite the mystery
Such confusion and frustration
With lots of lost souls in misery

Be there for her
Hold her in your arms
Always guide and protect her
Give her those loving charms
Be the one who stays dedicated
Carry out your mission and reach for the goal
Love your lady unconditionally
Enlighten and enrich her soul
