SAME IS THE SAME
 

As we live our lives day to day,
the days remain just the same,
each one with 24 hours of time,
each one an opportunity to shine.

If we wish our tomorrows to differ,
from our yesterdays all past,
what must change is what WE see,
otherwise the same is the same for eternity.

The days all remain as they are,
all full of time for us to advance,
if tomorrow will differ from today,
means WE must change in some way.

Time does not control us,
unless we are wrapped in that fear,
time is here for US to grow and use,
for we can, whenever we CHOOSE to CHOOSE !!

If you awake each day,
full of old fears and doubts,
then nothing will magically happen,
for change does not happen so sudden.

If you are not willing to change,
to venture from your comfort zone,
then your time is your rut,
and your hopes are all shut.

To want better, to gamble, to try,
to think positive think SURE,
to be in charge of the energy,
to know life is YOURS, and happily.

These are the points you must decide,
before you can take life by the reins,
you must demand from yourself to try,
and not sit, feel bad and cry.

You OWE it to yourself and to life,
to BE all that you are able,
to GIVE to the world by success,
to overcome and leave the old mess.

Make it a challenge within YOU,
and DON'T think can't, won't or lose,
take a DEEP look in the mirror and vow,
that you WILL be alive, here and NOW !
