Her Strength…

[Author’s Note: "Her" is intended to be non-gender specific, and was much easier to write than "Her/His."]

 

Her strength of character

Is contagious

 

Her strength of spirit

Is impassioned

 

Her strength of friendship

Is energizing

 

Her strength of generosity

Is unequaled

 

Her strength of compassion

Is unprecedented

 

Her strength of duty

Is mind-boggling

 

Her strength of morality

Is exemplary

 

So many attributes

For each of us to espouse

I find myself

Wondering if I am a louse

 

My heart tells me

That I can be better

My ego says

Don’t be such a fretter

 

Yet, when this life

Is done

Will I have eternal life?

Will I have lost or won?

the pure pure heart does not come to us from birth -- we must struggle to continuously purge the errant paths from its journey into a life of eternity -- may peace and love be with you my friend on this soon to be day of Thanksgiving -- Jon Michael

With such strength no one can be a loser, with such strength the phrase the sky and beyond is the limit comes to mind.
