What are you made of?

What makes You who You are?
Do you show it?
Do you Speak it?
Do you strum it on Guitar?

Do occurrences in the world
Become embedded in your soul?
Are Harmony and Unity your Lifetime Goals?

Do you Celebrate the underdog?
Can you Stop to Breathe The air?
Are you concerned about the future
Or do you step out with faith and Dare?

Do you let the past remain the Past
And breathe each moment in?
Can you sift through what life hands you
And then rise above the Din?

Can you uncover faith in Humanity
Find the Gandhi-s in your Life?
Can you revel in the goodness
Can you overlook the Strife?

Can you value every single day–
The blessings each one brings?
Can you find at least a single truth–
A bead of which to string?

Are there memories you cling to
Which help you carry on?
Are you thankful for the wisdom
That your Elders carried on?
Can you source upon that wisdom ,
When you need it and go on?

Can you look upon a little child
And learn a lot from him?
Can you find and pet a dog or cat
And savor time with him?

Can you walk upon this earth of ours
And recognize its worth?
Can you understand the gift we’re given
With every single birth?

Can you sense the very message
That Is present deep inside?
Can you commit to find your purpose
Dwell upon it, and Abide?
Can you understand that often times
Your calling will be tough?
Will you breathe in faith and Soldier on
Commit to Growth and become Strong?

Will you Share the Gifts you’re given
Will you find that love Prevails?
Are you satisfied with Status Quo?
Does it Bother you to fail?

Can you think about
What You’re about—
Might you even write it down?
Will it Bother you to have it read?
Can you see how far you’ve come?

Can you understand that you’re Unique–
Can you wear that badge with Pride?
Can you find inside the courage
To no longer want to hide?

Can you speak your piece with confidence–
Can you state your case with grace?
Can you know inside
Deep down inside
Your perspective is OK?
Have you wondered Deep inside you
If You were meant to be much more
If your capable of something that you’ve never done before?

Are you satisfied with wondering
Can you try and fail with ease?
Do you think that we are tied and bound
By the labels That we use?

Do you wonder if this world of ours
Will one day cease to be?
Do you let it shape your actions–
Do you squander?
Can you see?

Do you wonder
When your days are through
If you’re Soul is really gone?
Do You think think this life is ended
Do you think you’ll start anew?

Will you have a chance to right the wrongs
Will you learn from mistakes–
Will you sing a new song?

Do we have the chance
for a re-do right now?
Can saying “My Bad”
Make a difference somehow?

Can you wonder and wonder and wonder aloud?
Do you mind if God hears you?
Can you stand up and Be Proud?
Can you Put Your Shoulders Back
And Step into the World
Know You Are Here for a Purpose
And Have the Courage to Be Heard?

Can you Live
Can You Learn
From this Life that You Know
Can you Find Health and Find Happiness
Wherever you Go?

I think that You Can
And I think that You Will
If you Commit Yourself Now
You will surely Fulfill
The life that Awaits you
The life that You’re Due
The Life that is Lovingly Earmarked for You!

Take a Deep, Deep, Deep Breath
And Don’t Step With care
Or you’ll never know what
You’ll be missing out there.

For you are Held
Right and Certain
In an all Knowing Hand
The Hand that knows Every
Line upon Your Own hand

And He’s Certain
Oh So certain,
of your Future It’s True
If you trust him, Just trust him,
It’s Waiting For You.
