Something inside me

The first verse is from a song

Something Inside Me

Something inside me so strong says "I can do it"
I know I can make it
 
You said it would be too hard
I found it so easy
 
You dealt me a bad hand
I overcame it
 
You tried to beat me down
I rose above you
 
You said I was wrong
I proved you were the wrong one
 
You took away my ladders
I climbed the cliffs without
 
You were my boss
 I surpassed your level
 
You said my way was the wrong way
I did it my way and seceded

Like this. Achieving your ambitions whilst at the same time surpassing all that others thought you capable of.
Much to the disbelief of many a carpenter I manage a group of 50 men over 12 new build housing sites with no back ground in this trade. Common sense and an interest in the job go a long way to enabling success.

Leaving school I wanted to be an electrician > Boys like you cannt be electricians Only grammar school boy can do that you are getting too big for your boots you have to go to night school and do hard sums - You will do what I tell you to


About 2 months after leaving school a form came from the 'Labour exchange'
We have no record of where you are working; what you are doing; your hours of work and wage

I returned it - You refused to find me the job I wanted > I dont care about your records _______

what a wonderful write of strength and perseverance.... Its remarkable when we can do something when we know someone is trying to sabotage or hold us back from it... Nice write

I like this. The road to success is often rocky, however perseverance is the key element to conquer those fears and rise above the naysayers. Great read.
