Onward March

Do not dwell on the past

If peradventure it lies

Tinged with the aftermath

Of heavy tribulation.

Rather, look steadily ahead to

The promise of the future.

For such past, remains unchanged

And within the confines of the bygone.

Yet, the future portends possibilities.

Thus, focus on the rainbows of your life

Not on the clouds in the fading distance.

Nay, expand your horizons, and aspire

Towards all potential amid the future.

 Look forward!

The Extraordinary Tutor

Life is the master teacher,

With no close comparison.

For its weathered volumes of old

Are full of chapters which still

Resonate so profoundly in the

Echoes of the present, and

Will assuredly direct many a

Contemplation in the future.

Of its varied and instructive lessons…

Thus, listen very carefully, and

Observe most intently, then apply

That only which life can impart

In positive measure appropriately.

Chart Your Course Wisely!

Sound the New Refrain

Step Over It…

Whatever seeks to assail you,

Bet it of sudden or in lingering mode

                Step over it

Be it the tempest of life, so cruel

                Step over it

That disappointment of life, so unreal

                Step over it

The heart-rending betrayal, too deep

                Step over it

Whatever it is, that life

May bring to shake your core, in attempt

To eliminate tranquility and progress

That you so ardently seek,

Give it not the chance to prevail, rather

Court courage’s fierce companionship, and

My friend with utmost resolve

                Step over it indeed.

 Sound the new refrain and Step Over It!

Lasting Legacy

Be thou not deceived to the contrary …

For ‘tis undoubtedly worth the investment

To safeguard that constant companion, which

Subsists with thee as you journey forward

Through the scenes and storms of life’s sequence.

 

Though its foundation is fashioned early, still

It is further cast, amid survival, and certainly tides.

Evolving into character distinctively defining

The core of every being, steering each conscience

Towards the conviction of that candid courage.

 

Therefore, forsake it not, for want of the

Hollow lure of the flawed attributes, steadfastly

Embrace it for all seasons, even though, the

Winds fiercely billow, or tranquility yet prevails, so

That in the final accounting, integrity rewards thee.

Extol all virtue!

Hidden Virtue

Although, natural inclination is to somewhat

Ponder on such occurrences for extended time…

Dwell not, on the shortcomings of the past,

Rather, let them instruct you for the future

Particularly towards new strategies and beginnings.

For what good is it to stagnate in irreversible tides,

When otherwise challenging circumstances, inherently,

May expand discernment to alternative options, and

Pave the pathway to brighter and greater horizons.

Stride forward not backward

The Essence of Existence

Thus what is the true worth of

The travails of human existence …

Nought, but the ultimate inheritance

Of the blessed assurance of everlasting life

Through the perfect and absolute

Redemption of our Lord, Jesus Christ

Without which, no real value is added

To the fragility of this mortality.

Seek ye eternal salvation.

Motivation Nonetheless

Condemnation by others …

May just be the ironical motivation

Required to transcend life’s challenges.

Therefore, my friend transform such to thy advantage.

Benjoy’s Corner…Resumed

Triumphant

Victory is the impetus that sustains hope

While tis hope that  transforms the dreams

That propel one forward towards

The steadfast determination which paves

Pathways onward to accomplishments

Multiplying resultant victory into abundant success .

Thus dream, hope and stay the determined course to victorious success

Renewed

The promise of tomorrow

Brings with it the spring of  hope

Renewed dreams and multiple aspirations.

Therefore, let not the dim and dark

Recollections of the past

Anchor you immutably and

Out of reach of the dawn of hope

Embedded amid new beginnings.

Rather, with bold expectations

Embrace the future and strive

Unreservedly towards the

Treasure of your goals.

Life Indeed

Although the reason for existence

May not have been fully elucidated,

To limit the questions abounding

About the essential and real purpose

Of this terrestrial realm we inhabit.

Yet, should time here be thus

Squandered in futile adventure

For lack of absolute clarity.

Nay, each moment as gift, apportioned

And confined, but not defined wholly

By destiny, should be explored diligently

To the breadth of its potential,

Lest we fail to grasp and accomplish

That which was our portion to receive

And the true meaning of life indeed.
