Inspiring Words from within

I was thinking about what can make anyone motivated whenever they are sad, down, dejected etc. This question is raised by many an inquisitive mind, time in and time out. But then, truly…I have not found an answer that is convincing. There are a number of solutions we come across in books, talks and other mediums. They work, but then, you are put through such a completely different and new round of tests, that the solution that previously worked, doesn’t really work this time around.

Today, at the gym, I was thinking as to how one can not get sucked into a state of self-pity, self-blame, self-destruction etc., and as usual, the answer came in the form of this poem.

You are the Master

You are the decision maker

You have the choice

Make it or break it

It all lies in your hands

Things seem happening against you

then ask “SO What?”

Nobody can be against you

as long as you don’t acknowledge

You feel betrayed?

then say “I do not care”

You do not need affirmation

from outside

You need that from people

in your heart, including yourself

You feel you are not recognized?

But you know your worth

Name, fame will not stay

but memories and experience stay

Where do you think

the intuition comes from?

It comes from within

It comes from knowing

It come from experience

It comes from awareness

It comes from you

and that’s all you need!

You feel everything wrong is happening..

So what?

What is the worst thing

that can happen?

Can you take it head on

full of heart?

Can you stand firm?

Then, that’s all you need.

Head High My Friend…Head High!
