Determination Fast

Tis not strength, that man lacks..

Nay,

In power and genius, men are abundant

In profundity and passion, men are abundant

As in kindness and goodness, they are abundant

Tis not evil that plagues humanity..

Nay,

The goodness in his heart casts shadows three times that of any evil.

The mercy and forgiveness in humanity supersede evil.

As evil is manufactured, it hasn’t a hold over its creator.

Aye..

Where man is inadequate is in his will.

“Will” is soon beaten out of the young, willingly and without thought.

“Will” is surrendered, poisoned, and replaced by apathy.

The lack of will and perseverance and the affinity to compliance is indeed a plague.

It is what keeps us from actual progress

And stagnates our evolution.

Many born and raised,

Never tasting their truth

Many fated to live and die a mear shadow

Aye..

His will is inadequate, 

In this, he is reborn.

In this, there is hope

And where hopeful seeds are sown,

In this there is relief.

In willingness, the truth is shown
