Never Give Up.. Poem by Ridhima Mehrotra

Life is, what you make it
Life treats you the way, you treat it
Life would throw challenges
Face it with courage
Life would create obstacles
Overcome them fearlessly
Because, if you consider yourself defeated
Life would surely defeat you
So, never give up
Never ever give up
Shed tears, feel sad
Feel dejected, feel bad
But don’t quit
Don’t ever quit

Life is a race
Life is a marathon
There is no time to look back
Because it is gone
What you have, is present
What you can make, is future

Don’t let failures pull you down
Don’t let setbacks shatter your confidence
It is just a passing phase

Failures bring a lot of criticism
People start doubting you
People start undermining you
Have a heart to accept it
Have the strength to face it
Yet have the desire
To prove them wrong

Motivation depends on oneself
Self-motivation is the key

Look at the river
Its desire is to meet the sea
It does that facing all obstacles
It makes way for itself howsoever

Look at a tree
Initially a small seedling
Slowly and with patience
Grows so strong and huge

Every small to big thing can motivate
All you basically need
Is the fighting spirit…..
