Is There More That You Can Do?

Every day life challenges us, throws at us the good things and sometimes the not so good...

*

We may have to figure out how to navigate through issues, problems and sometimes, personal injuries or challenges. This poem was inspired by my desire to search for answers and improve my journey on a path to navigate a situation I have been facing. In my humble opinion, there is always something more that you, and I, can do... I hope this poem inspires or helps you...

Is There More That You Can Do?

Life is a process,

And there is always room to improve,

So think about it for a minute,

Is there more that you can do?

In many areas of your life,

You are happy about how things are,

And you feel that you are doing just fine,

And things have gone well, so far.

But there are those nagging moments,

When you know deep down inside,

That there are ways you can certainly improve,

Things you may not even have tried.

When you have an issue,

Or a problem or need to heal,

There is always something more you can do,

To improve the situation, or how you feel.

It just takes a little more commitment,

And a few more actions on your part,

To improve the situation at hand,

If you take the issue to heart.

So take a moment to ponder,

To rethink what you can do,

And take those actions to improve things,

Find something more that can help you.

For life is certainly a journey,

With obstacles along the way,

But there is always something more you can do,

To boost things up and help yourself every day.
