IF YA DON'T ALREADY KNOW, THEN NOW'S YOUR TIME TO ASK.

..........PERSISTANCE......
If you are to take a journey,
That will take you most of life,
Be prepared to suffer, forward you must strive.

It is your mind you must satisfy,
A goal of your own,
Do not be discouraged, let your focus roam.

It is the taking part, not just the getting there,
Life must have a purpose,
Both to strive for and to share.

Though the prize may slip your grasp,
All doubts you must resist,
When too tired and weak to carry on,
Then simply, just Persist.
