• The Climb

    Kid, you’ll move mountains! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So get on your way!

    – Dr. Suess

    I spent so much of my life comparing myself to others.
    Talking myself out of things that I’ve craved to uncover.

    I struggled to believe in myself, despite my best efforts.
    I couldn’t think straight while being under so much pressure.

    I settled for being comfortable, avoiding the unknown.
    It wasn’t easy for me to step outside my comfort zone.

    I lost myself for a while trying to love someone else.
    Unconditional love is forever, but conditional love melts.

    I made the ultimate sacrifice and left everything behind.
    It was time for me to reclaim the life that was always mine.

    Starting over can be frustrating, but there’s beauty in the madness.
    My true purpose shined through in a time filled with sadness.

    The attitude of gratitude kept me going through the pain.
    Sometimes you have to lose, that’s just part of the gain.

    A little progress each day adds up to big results.
    You win by being humble, not acting on impulse.

    It took me a while to finally believe, that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

    After the pain I learned to value my worth.
    I’m no longer in last place, I place myself first.

    If I can move mountains, so can you.
    Dreams are reality disguised as a source of truth.

    I’m conquering my mountains one day at a time.
    I’m on the road to success, it’s my time to shine.

      • I just reread this and I firmly believe many people would benefit from this poem or, at least, parts of this poem. The world is chaotic and confusing and can sometimes destroy your hope. Positive works like this help people push through and remind us that there is beauty and love out there waiting for us.
