It’s been said, “He who has a why to live for
Can bear almost any how,” need I say more?
We all need a reason great or small they say
For some reasons, there’s always hell to pay.
Motivation has always been about the why
If your why is important enough you’ll try
Once you know the why it turns to how
Make your list and put your hand to plow.
Sad are those who have lost their whys
For these sad people the spirit dies
But for those who hold true to the whys
Great joy and satisfaction the spirit flies
Wake up, be of great cheer the reason why
You have much worth, no reason to cry
Start by smiling no matter what is your how
Your reason is it’s a new day to live now.
