My Collected Thoughts Along the Way
()
About this ebook
While poet Rafael Garcia admits that life can be hard, its also precious, particularly when one learns to see it through the eyes of the heart. We cannot let circumstances discourage us or bring us down. Life is full of ups and downs, and experiencing them is what life is all about.
My Collected Thoughts along the Way is a collection of poetry by Garcia exploring the challenges and the divine encounters that prepare us for our destinies. His poetry offers a series of thoughts and poems that he has collected along the way through all of his life experiences. Some of his thoughts were born in the midst of chaos in his life, while others arose from stress, loneliness, hunger, or cold. My Collected Thoughts along the Way offers hope, encouragement, and the reminder that you are not alone.
One Must
One must have dreams and goals.
One must aspire to greatness.
One must not be content with just the crumbs of life.
One must work hard and reach success.
But must of all,
One must stay and remain humble while and throughout
The whole process.
Specially when reaching ones
Dreams and goals.
Never forgetting where he/she has come from.
Rafael Garcia
