“The power of the will is a fire That lies not outside, but within oneself.” By author **************************************************************** Power of the Will When fate has dealt us severe hammer blows And the sun is veiled for days in a row, When dark clouds shroud our mind with dull despair And strings of sturdy storms lay our soul bare Let us call on the power of the will To infuse in us stern strength to stand still; A sincere sister of perseverance Deep from the self, will power draws its sense And within us eternally resides As a fire to forge ahead that presides Over the part we play to reach our goals Without staining with soil our sacred soul.

If one has the will power to do something, it is almost half done. ......
