Be Someone

If it doesn’t make you stronger,

at least it’ll make you

a little more interesting.

Every challenge we have in life

is setting us up for failure.

We then proceed to conquer it,

though not always succeeding.

When we do we are thankful and grateful,

but occasionally we fall flat on our face.

When we do, it builds character

because we have to pick

ourselves up again, dust it off

and keep on keepin on.

When this unfortunate event

takes place in our lives

we should be thankful

because it builds character

 in our minds, spirits, bodies, souls and lives.

The more character a person may obtain,

the better, for the more character you have,

the more interesting you are.
