Don't Go With The Tide

Always be sure of what to say,

Be sure of your dreams your ideas,

It will take you a long long way,

In whatever you do in your life,

Don't try to catch up with your peers,

Let them catch up with you,

For following is a shabby imitation,

Success on your own terms not on others,

Failure should be taken in its stride,

Should not be the end but the beginning, 

You are human not one of the gods',

For even Homer sometimes nods.

Hear to what everyones has to say,

Listen to sane advice discard others, 

Followers are dime a dozen part of crowd,

You are not a follower but a leader. 

Sometimes in life you take decisions,

That are unpopular stand by it, life is not

Bed of roses, sometimes you walk on thorns,

For you should always stand apart,

Always enjoy life's wonderful ride,

Show you got a head and also a heart.

But never go with the tide.
