A Will to Survive

















You tread on ...thru rocky mountains and thru treacherous jungles,
Up and down ... thru muddy hills and soft grounds,
In scorching heat and unbearable cold,
Thru terrible times…in hunger and in pain. You tread on ...

No matter how far you walk…same road continues on,
You meet companions on the way,
Some join you, some ignore you, some even despise you, and some admire you,
But you still tread on... with or without anyone's support.

It's as if someone's calling for you,
You look ahead, Destiny is it? Or looking to fulfill someone's intentions?
Looking for paradise? A mere imagination??
Why are you following a voice that you don't even recognize?

Companions lose hope...but you are always confident,
You tread on ahead...following that voice,
Filled with hope...Hope of reaching paradise? A goal perhaps? Does it even matter?
With pride you tread on, no matter how lonesome of a journey it is...

People need that "something"..."A Drive," in order to continue on with their life when it strikes you with a blow that you can no longer get up. It could be anything!!...hatred for someone, revenge, love, etc. But you need to have that "will" to continue through hard time. It's like the saying goes... "WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS HOPE!!"

Is that the case with everyone? Are we living on day to day basis because we have that "will", "a drive" that keeps us going? Can we continue if we did not have that?
