The Greater Endowment
The inestimable treasure of existence
Beyond all earthly measure, is the
Precious but limited gift of life.
Thus, it is but incumbent upon each
To nurture the bequest to the fullest
Dimension of its inherent potential
In honor of the opportunity to live.
Embrace the gift!

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.

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.

Nurture not the practice of complaining
For it is but an anchor for stagnation,
Within which, withers due promise of hope,
Causing thereby, the gradual demise of motivation,
That otherwise, would have found abode to
Flourish towards the fulfillment of dreams.

To steal from one’s self is bad enough
But to procrastinate is the worst sort.
For time lost is never regained
Save through the futile guise of memory
And if it has been said too often
Surely it still will be repeated once still
“Procrastination is the thief of time”.
So make haste and don’t delay
Toil, labour with all your might today.
Let not the wily thief rob of you
What is more precious than gold.
For once that glorious sun sets today
No matter how hard we hope and pray
Another morning shall indeed dawn again.

My gift to you is this…
I wish for you now and always
The peace of God, the foundation
And maker of the whole universe,
Which peace, exceeds the knowledge
Of mere humanity, but from within its
Boundless and sustaining essence, remains
An ever faithful impenetrable anchor
Which, calms the ripples and turbulence of life,
Transforms the sphere of human perception
Yet, assuredly provides enduring solace
And the tranquility of comforting relief
In aid of the spirit that embraces it.

One enigmatic aspect of this life …
May just lie within its illusive nature.
For certain, it is predestined for each
An allotted dimension with this sphere.
Without a shadow of a doubt, what is past
Lies wholly an irretrievable quota, and
Is dissipated within the winds of time,
Coupled with the continuing challenge
Of accomplishing the outstanding agenda
Within a future measure that is uncertain.

The element of life that alters not
Is the steadfast immutability of change,
Thus, if it pervades through life with known constancy,
‘Twill be improvident, if in the pursuit of life, change is
Not anticipated, earnestly prepared for, and adapted to.

An opportunity of a lifetime …
Is only the opportunity of the lifetime
If it is identified and recognized as such,
Embraced and diligently pursued, and
Extracted of the fullest potential it heralds
To one’s benefit and best advantage.

Failure to utilize time in advancement of life
Particularly one’s life, is an absolute tragedy
Of measurable and immeasurable dimensions.
