Excellence is never an
accident, it represents
the wise choice of many
alternatives; sincere effort,
intelligent execution and
a choice not to waste time,
for time is what life is made
of and in your journey
choose to have purpose
on earth and strength in
direction and strength in
messages that you give
yourself because those
are the most important
messages that you will
hear.

It may be that by choosing
labor and painful effort and
by choosing grim energy
and absolute courage that
you are able to be here and
are able to move on to better
things and it might be that
somebody chose to believe
in you, so you need to choose
not to let them down and if
you have the opportunity to
make things better and you
choose not to, then you are
wasting your time on this
planet, and if you choose to
spend your life waiting for
the storm, you will never
enjoy the sunshine, so live
in a good place, keep your
mind deep, and treat others
well, stand by your word,
make fair rules, and do the
right thing and work when
it is time, as you determine
your destiny by choices
that you make.               Jon York 2017
