Be that "one"

Be that "one".

by Chinma Juanita O

Do you not know that
those who run in a
race all run, but "one"
receives the price?
In life you only get to
run once, so run to win.

To avoid stumbling or
losing your place, don't look back.
You can't change the past,
but thank God
you can learn from it
and leave it behind.

Don't be anxious
about the next lap,
focus only on the next step.
If u miss that,
you may fall & not get
up again.

Before you know it,
you'll soon have more laps
behind you than ahead of you,
so make every lap count.

We spend our strenght
extinguishing fires that if left alone,
would burn out on their own.
Time is your most valuable resource.
Save it & you've increased your
assets & decreased
your liabilities.

There are enough painful trials in life:
why endure the ones you can lay aside.
Lay it aside & run. "Be that one"
