Poem: The story of a champion
The mallet that pounds on the body, mind and soul
Has nothing but pure passion
Not the strength of an ox
Or the power of a horse
But the sacred ingredients of success
It’s not a story about short cuts
And easy leaps
It’s a story about pain, endurance
And total commitment
It’s a story about sweat and sometimes blood
A story about faith, hope and Love
It’s a pure spiritual journey
A champion rises from the ashes
Unscathed by past failures
Or scars
A champion looks to the future
With the eyes of hope
Not defeated by logic
A champion opens a path beyond knowing
Into the sacred path of Light
The story of a champion is not pure luck
Or any effects of charms or spells
It’s washed by questions with no answers
It’s drowned in lack of a clear path
But fully loaded with passion, hope and love
It’s not the summit of hopelessness
That stands in front of their eyes
It’s the ultimate joy of surpassing expectations
Climbing the un-climbable mountain
Onto the sacred peak
The story of a champion begins in the now
And continues to live in the now
Past achievements are nothing
Compared to the present moment
A champion cannot stay attached to past success
Or trespass into the future with excitement
A champion is committed to the now
What happens now determines the championship
It’s not your story that will open new pathways
It’s your commitment to stay in front
And hold on the now in your hands
That gives you peace, joy and rest
