Reap what you sow

George Bernard Shaw said, "People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they can't find them, they make them."


Poem Artwork

If I so desired I could complain to God for I’ve had many problems to this date

But I believe what is written that you harvest what you propagate

Deep down inside I realize I have played a part in both blessings and adversity

Because there is no one to blame for any problems except for me

Deep down inside I know that there are and will be limitations

I also know one can overcome these if he uses his imagination

There is one sure way to be a failure and this is oh so true

If you are afraid to try you have already failed, the choice is up to you

The man who was elected President was elected because he ran

The person who never took the chance never said, “I can”

Don’t blame your lot in life as that of a victim of circumstance

Look for opportunity, move on it.  Don’t be afraid to take a chance

The human mind knows no end except that you place upon it

Don’t be afraid to first dream, then do and you will earn the credit
