• Poem: There are points in time when we really need to choose something else.
  
  🌿When the great lengths to be trekked are more obvious,
  look back if the urge is there
  but also find motivation
  from the distance already travelled,
  and perhaps in knowing
  that the desired destination may already be closer.
  🌿When it's more human to feel the stress, pain, or heaviness
  from the hardships and trials,
  rest if need be
  but choose to heal and recharge
  to get back up and move on.
  🌿When the words and tones of fault-finding
  are more pronounced and louder,
  listen and respond if you can't avoid the sounds or conversations
  but choose not to believe what can put the spirit down for good.
  🌿When it's convenient to give up
  and give in to overwhelming odds ahead,
  rethink and review steps as necessary
  but also choose to let such be
  for a better path towards the goal.
  🌿 When it's easier to mourn the past,
  do so as humans need to
  but choose to learn from the experience.
  
  It's fine to reflect on what had been
  and accept such to be
  if it will help in doing what's needed
  for the present
  towards a better future.
  There's always something positive to find
  but, even if everything seemed to be bleak,
  always choose to believe there's hope.
