Ability:
I choose not to place "DIS", in my ability.
We, the one's who are challenged, need to be heard. To be seen not as a disability, but as a person who has, and will
continue to bloom. To be seen not only as a handicap, but as a well intact human being.
Limitations only go so far.
Placing one foot in front of the other, I've climbed to higher lengths. Reaching beyond my own limitations, to show my
inner strength. No obstacle to hard, for this warrior to overcome. I'm just a man on a mission, to prove my disability hasn't
won.
My disability has opened my eye's to see my true abilities.
Age:
If my body were a tree trunk, the rings would surely reveal the time it has had to mature.
Change:
Take a good hard look in the mirror, and remember yourself as you are today, cause as time changes, so does the scenery.
Have courage enough to accept what you can not change, but yet courageous enough to stand up and fight for what you can.
Where ever fear exists, courage can be found.
Character:
I can not, and will not judge, by what my eyes may see. For the skin on a man shall not reveal his true identity.
Difficulty:
Reality bites, and I've got the teeth marks to prove it.
There may be troubled waters along the many paths my life shall take, but only I as a man, may keep my vessel afloat,
and guide myself straight.
To be, I must endure the pain.
Dare to walk the path that others have feared to travel, and a leader shall then be born.
Education:
No one has ever died, from an overexposure to education.
Equality:
In the dark, equality for all of mankind couldn't seem brighter.
To find equality for mankind, we must first remove the barriers that have divided us for so long.
Failure:
Failure leaves open a door for us to try, and try again.
Friendship:
Friendship reaches well above all currency.
Ideas:
Structure builds minds into great Monuments.
Insults:
He who dares to speak with a razor sharp tongue, shall in end, bare the final scar.
Knowledge:
The mind is like a sponge, soaking up endless drops of knowledge.
Life:
Life isn't all about what you don't have, but yet, what you do with what you have been given.
Life is a challenge, and I'm staying in the game to win.
Love:
When the heart speaks, love listens.
One is more desirable when loved, not feared.
No scale to balance, what's in my heart.
No numbers to measure, nor even to chart.
This love can't be seen, in ounces or in pounds.
For only through time, can it's value be found.
Build your world around me, and promise to never let me go, and if ever their comes a time it may seem crowded, may we
expand so love may grow.
Solidarity:
A single man of one, only pebbles can be moved, but many men together, stands no mountain that can't move.
Sorrow:
Tears are the body’s raindrops of emotion.
Success:
In order for us to reach success, we must first find, the ladder.
Success is measured simply by the amount of effort we put forth, in conquering our objectives.
Time:
Hands of time move us forward, never back. Only memories frozen in mind, can we reenact.
Writing:
Poetry, is the insulation that lies between the inner walls of the mind.
A poem is but a thought, a mere memory caught at play.
From hand onto paper, bleeding thoughts emerge.
A pen to a poet becomes a mighty sword. When drawn, a literary war against paper, creatively unfolds.
