SMILE, TOMORROW IS YOURS

source

If the spoon that fed you wasn't silver
Neither was your cradle decked with gold
And dry were your breads, without butter
Smile, life holds riches untold

If your yesterday was raised in gutter
Your story, you feel shame to tell
Today even, isn't so much better
Smile, tomorrow shall be well

If you feel ashamed of who you are
And can't find purpose in your reality
You may not have to look too far
Just smile, and rule your destiny

If you ever feel like a loser
Like the whole world's left you behind
Take a break, and look closer
And smile at the little wins you'd find

If it was by might or by power
What then is 'Time and Chance?'
Put your effort into every hour
And smile, no matter the circumstance.

If it seems to take forever
For your dreams to come true
Keep at it, don't pull over
And smile, let nothing deter you

All these 'ifs' are for you to remember
That God still open doors
If you do not sleep nor slumber
Smile, tomorrow is yours!

I have always wondered why life play out in ways that beat logic most of the time. One can be totally down and out with all the odds against him. But in a blink of an eye, everything turn around and he's up there doing great. Sometimes, we may strongly believe it's because of our effort. But I tell you, I have seen people favored, and it wasn't their effort. This is not to say that they were lazy all through. Laziness and idleness is not part of this equation. Believe that God sees your efforts. Even when you feel discouraged, hang on in there, it's the only chance you got— your time will come. Believe!
