ROOTS OF CHARACTER

ROOTS OF CHARACTER

"Those who preserve their integrity remain unshaken by the storms of daily life. They do not stir like leaves of a tree or follow the herd where it runs. In their mind remains the ideal attitude and conduct of living. This is not something given to them by others. It is their roots…it is a strength that exists deep within them."

Beyond boundaries and limitations

Across choices and decisions

Come between understanding and trust

‘Till the end while it last

When life comes with every difficulty

Realization to the point for ambiguity

Trials may come back and forth

Challenges succeeded and learning’s are worth

Life’s battle and success begins in each and everyone of us,

Decisions are made with pure courage and trust

Defeating boundaries in every circumstances

Knowing and improving each and everyone’s differences

Life is too short to play and wander around

‘Coz you might get killed to just play safe and sound

How much is left to change and learn

When you just risking life to lose and burn

What is your purpose anyway?

Are you just risking life to live and play?

Why mess such beautiful life,

When you can be wise to live a life

How much is left to change and learn

When you just risking life to lose a turn

Every minute, every second is at its tic

To every time of our life has its own trick

Life is worth every appreciation

Inclined with values, faith and decision

As you go through the flow with your strength of your voice

When Happiness and Sadness are a matter of choice

Life is a mystery

It always begins with us

We don’t know what’s out there

It may be right or wrong

But it is worth to battle and fight

Fight by giving and loving

Life is full of battle

It is always a matter of trying

And a matter of doing

When decisions today

Can change for a better tomorrow . . .

Now give it a try to go through the road of life

And see how far you will go…

And have an inspiration with the one you love most…

Then what does it takes to cross beyond the shoreline?

Life always begins within us…

just a dude

im always a friend

for sure you can depend

if life turns and bends

i'll never leave you till the end

seconds, minutes, hours, days,

months, years, mondays through sundays

seven days a week 24 hours a day

you can count on me for sure to stay

i love you very very much i said

in return you said thank you instead,.

but im not the type of guy to complain

why would i, i'd just say those 3 word over and over again,.

every morning i wake up to greet you

every night i say good night too,.

coz its just a wonderful feeling to do.

and i never do this to other people, just you.

sometimes you're moody, i know, i understand

and sometimes your so sweet and try to be as thoughtful as you can

sometimes you just stay quiet and dont speak at like you used to

but cons and pros will not decide my reasons for loving you

i promised to be a friend, i know i said it many times

to wait till your ready, i'll fly back 2000 miles

when the time comes, when my pocket is not just with nickles and dimes

i hope we'll hear a different sound,. something like bells and chimes

i know you have lots on you're mind,

certain problems in life that i cant understand

i dont want to ask, or give advices

but if ever you need me just reach out your hand

i can not sleep for 3 morning dews

i can be tired, i can be sick, and sometimes i might feel blue

but that would'nt change the fact that i will still pursue

even if im just a dude who's madly in love with you.
