Expressing life's journeys in writing and poetry
Along the road of progress
There will be ups, there will be downs
People will come in and out
At times you may feel you don’t know, whether your on the right course
If you should have made another turn
Yet this is where resolve matters most;
Stay strong on your course,
Stay strong
When on the road of progress
Have nothing but absolute faith;
Trust in the truth within 💗
~ M. L Adams
Always on a mission;
Making those goals mine
Always moving forward,
With those goals in sight
Nothing can ever stop me
I’ve wasted too much time
Life is far too short;
This time is now mine! 👊💥
~ M. L Adams
Where once I was scared
Now this is a mere challenge for me
A goal to achieve,
And through it all
I will win,
Truth will win,
To rise to the top;
For all to see 💕
~ M. L Adams
Don’t aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it.
For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one’s personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one’s surrender to a person other than oneself.
Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge.
Then you will live to see that in the long-run—in the long-run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it
~ Victor E Frankl
I simply decide
How it will be
I am in charge,
Here completely free,
With no illusions ever to take hold;
I’m always free, pursuing every goal,
I simply decide,
What it will be
I make it happen
With every inch of me,
Going for the gold
With all that I ever hold,
I simply decide;
It is then my dream arrives 🙏
~ M. L Adams
“Determination with Faith is the greatest power. We only need decide.”
If you think you needed
Anything outside of you
To achieve your goals and dreams
Then how could you believe in yourself
It’s within you,
Always has been
Now you know this,
Nothing will stop you
~ M.L Adams
“It’s the certainty within you;
The faith,
That achieves the success.
Believe you can and you always will.”
~ M.L Adams
Keep going,
Moving forwards
There’s no reason to look back,
Keep your eyes focused forward
Let the fear dance by your side
It’s your victory that pulls you forward
The energy that drives you to go
Step it up and keep going
Your victory is high and nigh
Lets make it happen,
Keep going
You’ll be there in no time
Let your victory pull you forwards
Drive right past that winners line
~ M.L Adams
Twenty years from now,
You will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do
Than by the ones you did,
So throw off the bowlines
Sail away from the safe harbor
Catch the trade winds in your sails
Explore,
Dream
Discover
~ Mark Twain ~
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
