Washington, DC, you need to wake up today
House Representatives you think Guns are ok
Guns in the public’s hands with bullets that go astray
Guns constantly **** every day
But it seems you want to have your own way
Push has constantly been done to get rid of Guns, but as usual Congress you have no words to say
Bullets can have anyone’s aim
But you Congress are the finger pointing in blame
Whatever happened to God’s commandment. “Thou shall not ****”
But the question being and answer stalled on still
Guns will continue to destroy
Human bodies are not decoys
Guns are used as though they are toys
Congress, please stand with the world who are against guns
This is not some joke being a pun
It’s the seriousness of all these unnecessary guns
Guns are supposed to protect
At least this is you Congress has stated being elect
But you have turned your heads as a reject
What would it take for Guns to disappear?
Lives being loss, but how does one preserver
I often pray that Congress will do the right thing
Not so much fighting and being uptight
The mission is “Bullets to lose and lives to gain”
This ongoing shootings just can’t remain
Guns must go and just follow my flow
Guns have their own any and the multitudes add up to many
Fire one, aim to stop
Fire two, the target could be you
Fire three, Guns are getting into the wrong hands
Guns that could fire on me, and no one would investigate to see
How long and why wait?
Congress and the world, this is no time to hesitate.

Men on a boat
The drift and the float
Looking for a fish
Serving as a Dinner Dish
Focus is the Fishing Rod
Adding the Bait
Hope for a catch
Suddenly a bite
Reeling in the Fishing Rod
Pull after pull
First catch of the day
Same procedure again
Fish catch reel in
Fishermen in their catch
Maneuvering boat back to shore
A fishing meal for sure.

Exercise
Feel Energized
Stretch

Feel the weight
Continue exercising and don’t hesitate
Exercise is never too late
Your body and the new you will appreciate
Just use proper technique
It’s shape and conditioning that you seek

The Mirror says the exercising is bringing everything together
Keep the Motivation
Exercise is about activation
Remember, no pain no gain, and don’t tire
Don’t think expire
Exercise until the end
Watch as your body transformation transcends
preservationman Nov 2019
Exercise to maintain
The extra fat that can’t remain
Focus should be on shape
The mirror should not be showing one big as an ape
Nutrition being an important factor
There should be no cheating then regretting after
Fitness must be a total commitment in seeing the exercising results
The scale tells the truth
Exercise will enhance cells and that will improve your youth
Now you keep saying you need exercise
The key to exercise will help you to be energized
This is nothing revolutionized
You must take the first exercise step
This is how results and goals are met
Exercise like the Jack LaLanne way
Be consistent but don’t astray
Put a smile on the Full Length Mirrors face
Turn on exercise into being your own race
So let’s begin and let your before and after become your transformation trace.

Down the Runway and into the sir we will go
Then seeing the earth and movement of people below
We’re be up in the clouds

Our adventure is too anywhere
A trip that you won’t be able to compare
Where will we land?
It could be anywhere on land in where we stand
Do you want a Caribbean feel?
Maybe the Las Vegas gambling deal
Perhaps the Florida sun
Tanning on the beach that would be fun
Now I did say anywhere
No journey could ever compare
Thanks for flying along
You are back home where you belong
Now as we disembark, let’s have a sing a long
I hope I made your poetry trip lifelong.
Let my wings soar

There is much to say about Florin Street
A Street full of unity
It’s also outside a major city
The place of joy and happiness
It is in Chestnut Grove, Vermont
It’s where dreams and hope come together
The wintry slopes
The winter feel of snow
At Christmas time, Florin Street becomes its own wonderland
The senses of love
Yet only a tot can embrace
Florin Street comes alive in any Season or Holiday
The Neighbors become your family
Festive Love all around
The stars would twinkle every night
The Church bells would ring Florin Street inspiration
It was no time to be said, but every given moment to be glad
Florin Street was the place to be
The atmosphere was the place and still is for all to see
Enchanted, but more than once upon a time
It was how the ice sickles would shine
All the Neighbors would be dancing and singing
There was so much good will
It is even still
Florin Street being a look back
But my story was a total fact
My mind is a personal projector
Florin Street always invites outsiders to enter
Those were the days
In fact, those memories will always stay
At least, I have a place for a getaway
No matter whether I am depressed or struggle, Florin Street will always cheer me up
Joy from the heart
Florin Street being my start
Cheers

Welcome aboard and buckle up
Prepare for takeoff
Let me introduce myself, I am the Pilot of words
On this flight, you will learn about this flying bus
The company is well known and you will be surprised
Now it is time for me to emphasize
You heard of flying cars that turn into a plane
That’s the future, and moving forward will remain
But my story is about a flying bus
Yes, it surrounds the Greyhound bus
Imagine a stretched hound being the trademark on an actual plane
It is a known fact, but let me take you back
It was in 1996, the Greyhound Air started its Canadian Flight
Passengers left from the various Canadian Airports
Greyhound had taken to the friendly skies that became an enterprise
The Parent Company was Greyhound Canada
However, the airlines business was short lived, and ceased operations in 1997
If someone says when dogs learn to fly
Just emphasize, the Greyhound dog did it in a big way as it had wings, and took to the air
Don’t be surprised with strange responses that you might get
Maybe even wager with them in a bet
I am a witness that Greyhound did fly
It was an illusion
You can draw your own conclusion
The air was the Greyhound way
That’s the story told today
Enjoy your flight in every way.

It’s a Hound Dog, a bus or plane?
It’s the Flying G on the Runway Lane
Did you know Greyhound’s know how to fly?
I will explain the reason why
At one point, Greyhound dog legs leaped to the friendly skies with wings
Yes, you read right wings
The Greyhound Bus Company that was the Canadian version of Greyhound Air
A flying machine
People don’t relate the bus company to the air
It was a company beyond compare
People thought that the Greyhound bus company was grounded to the highways, but the Hound Dog was seen in the air along with the other major airlines
Just imagine a Flight Attendant voice welcoming you aboard Greyhound Air in fasten your seat belts and observe no smoking
Flying G with up and down wheel gears
Have no fear, the Flying G will help preserver
However, the airline ceased operations in 1993
The flying G was the way to go
Now you know
The Hound was always the highway flow now, but a slower pace
You will always see Greyhound’s in their race
As for the travelling passenger, it becomes an out of breath chase
Trying to keep up the Greyhound pace.

Follow me too the kingdom
Are you ready to go?
You can’t be slow
Just go with the Heavenly flow
But if you want to get to the kingdom there are provisions
Seeking salvation in knowing you need to be born again
Praying Continuously
Follow God’s word and reading scriptures
Witnessing for Christ to others in Christ’s honor
But before you follow me
You must remember, Heaven is a place you can’t get to by Car, Train, Air, Walk nor bus
It’s pure salvation that surrounds us
But there must not be any fuss
You must have Faith
Believe and no doubt
Confessing one is a Sinner
Only then accepting salvation one has permission in Heaven’s enter
But you must keep the Faith while you are on Earth
You must value salvation for all it’s worth
Take full in God’s word
Witness to God’s people in letting his goodness and mercy being heard
Heaven bound having preparation
Your testimony being participation
Spreading the gospel in illustration
Now that you know, are you ready to follow me too the Kingdom
No need to pack bags
But Heaven and salvation is a made up mind but don’t drag
Your mind should be all made up
Yet you should pray Lord always fill up my spiritual cup
But seek Heaven with your true heart and just be caught up.

One moment to reflect back

Footsteps every turn
Distances being mountains climbed
Detours being a turnaround
Wanting time to slow up
Needing time to just time
Wanting doubt to be eliminated
Wonder within yonder

Every shadow being the image of presentation
Bare feet with open ideas
Into the unknown of tomorrow

Let the footprints be able into enable and stable in being determined. Blueprints being the rendering of one’s soul and one heart to another. Deliver in showing the way.

Rejection chain reaction
New Born Male Child
A babe suffering during while
A Mother who wanted her son to die
Heaven’s intervention rise
The new born experienced Asthma, Yellow Jaundice and Malnutrition
The birth weight way below normal circumstances
Life surrounding was uncertain
Doctors are given up hope
Assurance was no cope
Doctors calculated that the babe will only live to 7 in longevity
They told the family to prepare for a funeral and not become attached, but if I lived on it would be God’s will
The Doctors suggested that I put in a Foster Home, but my Grandparents stepped in
Foster Home ruled out
Fast forward through the years, the babe grew up to a teenager of 17 and beyond
The Male teenager spend many weekends with his mother who didn’t want him
The Mother often said she wanted a Girl
No fault on my part, I just became the end product what God wanted me to be
She would cuss and chastise the son for no apparent reason

It was always criticism and negativity that came from the mother to the son
There was definitely a wall of a barrier between the mother and son with love nowhere to be found
The son was blamed for his mother not marrying the internal father
How does a child who didn’t ask to be born being the problem?
The Yellow Jaundice had changed the pigmentation of skin to Caucasian, but that was only briefly when I was born
To this day, the son feels no love and doesn’t extend love to his mother
There used to be a lot of anger and bitterness, but since has been released
Carrying plenty of tension throughout the years

The son prayed to the Lord in honesty in stating he didn’t love his mother
The Lord’s response, “Just respect her”
There were times the son hated himself thinking it was a mistake in him being born
There was even a thought of suicide attempt
A Mother who is not even proud of what her son who is independent, Graduated from college and Self-Alliant has become
The son will always believe a mother wanted to **** her son while she was barring with all her smoking, and stated quote “I would of had an abortion done when abortions weren’t even heard of back then
Yet, a son who is ever proud and achieved greatness in life under the Lord’s eyes.

Restricted full of discipline
Parents who raised their son Johnny
A boy who was taught right from wrong
The same concept in educating in how to get along
Johnny often told his parents he wanted to go out
But it became more of a shouting match than discussion
It was always total disruptions on both sides
But this was Johnny’s Parent house, and he would have to abide
Yet, Johnny always wanted to venture about
In Johnny’s eyes, it was about exploring life’s enjoyments in care
That is no more than fair
But Johnny’s parent’s who were so strict wanted their son to have the best things in life, and higher learning in education was the absolute key
Johnny’s Parent didn’t want their son to hang out on the streets than become a **** controlling the streets
This was a lesson of living survival
But it is inspiration being noble
Yet, when one is a Teenager being like Johnny, you want to find yourself
He wanted to fit I with his peers
But that is what Johnny’s Parent always feared
This is why Johnny was restricted on every bound
The idea for Johnny was to climb the mounds being their son’s own success
But Johnny’s words says it best, “Being young you want friends too look upon, and endure the sweet smell of humanism”
However, Johnny’s Parent were thinking beyond their son’s mind being intellectual
So being restricted having a reason and purpose
Isn’t that obvious?
Life on roadblock, but caution to no unjustified flock
Johnny, be your best, and let learn confess
Those words came from Johnny’s parent
You are our only son, we want you to live and be among.

As a kid going to Private School
We learned many things being numerous source tools
We would often take field trips to various places
Each had its own individual spaces
One particular event was the United Nations
It was known with communicating with and establishing that with the world
We journeyed in what makes the United Nations in what it is
We had a Tour Guide from India who told us about the UN
Then our tour really started to begin
We entered an auditorium behind a sturdy glass
It was made to muffle the sound of silence much like a mask
We were at a General Assembly with a headset and Interpreter who spoke
As a kid, we learned that the UN was a serious business and no joke
Well things started to heat up with strong intense verbal use
It was becoming more like personal country abuse
Countries upon countries telling each other off
You could say defining with no meaning
The Interpreter literally stopped translating
Because we were 12 years old, Security demanded that we take off the headsets immediately
Later we headed for our school bus and journeyed back to our destination
It’s amazing how things are done all with a little persuasion
The United Nations with its own special blend, and my story that has come to a complete end.

It left the audience and Judge’s in a daze

Multitude strong with pride
It was togetherness in the Freedom Riders stride
Civil Rights is still an issue today
The world must take a stand all the way
There can’t be a command with a demand
Justice is for throughout the land
Thank You Freedom Riders for the path
This is not the last
Greyhound thanks for the Civil Rights destination
As for the Freedom Riders, you are the face of the nation.

We are thought of as a tribe
But our destiny is written in the destination scribe
A Greyhound Bus led the Freedom Way
Racial discrimination and separation was not ok
There was a fight for change on that day
Freedom is a given right
They didn’t captivate being polite
They certainly didn’t just sit tight
Where there was darkness, there was a guiding light
Freedom Riders had a demand
It was going too be Justice throughout the land
It’s Equality for all being the caravan
The Freedom Riders voices were a definite shout
It’s was for the Nation’s Capitol to work Discrimination out
The mission didn’t revolve around the Black race, but togetherness for all races
Freedom Riders History was centered with a purpose having a trace
They were against all odds that couldn’t be erased
But was a task of face too face
Opposition wasn’t going to stop no matter what
It was the 1960 being a year having no defeat
The Freedom Riders were determined they weren’t going to retreat
They were going to speak out and be heard
They were animals flocking like a herd
Freedcm being the Freedom Riders first name
Then last name in a determined Victory
Then came the end of the story.

Freedom Riders were Civil Rights Activist who were on the move
Supreme Court ruling in what they had to prove
Segregation that should be cut out
The added response would be a loud shout
Interstate buses were used in making their point
This was an outgoing mission and the Freedom Riders were not going to accept a disappoint
Freedom Riders in their voices on the road
This was a challenge to the Supreme Court
Greyhound Bus Lines was the Freedom Riders mode
This is was determination and the Freedom Riders will be undersold
The message was “We won’t be silent, and do as we are told”
The Freedom Riders journeyed on with no time to tire
Their voices were full of fire
The motto being their desire
There certainly was no time to retire
Freedom Riders carried on
Greyhound Buses were bombed in getting the Freedom Riders attention
But that wasn’t going to stop their platform stand
Civil Rights for all needed to be carried out throughout the land
We will not stop because our Greyhound bus has been destroyed
This just makes us strong and totally annoyed
The movement is a multitude strong
Civil Rights was finally confide
But let’s move Civil Rights today
We cannot let anyone stand in our way
What Washington objects is not ok
Civil Rights must remain active and focused
All nationalities belong
This is a call for Justice, and the world is letting it be known
Freedom Riders being the floor plan had shown
This is everyone’s time to let it be known
Voices have, and will continue to be, “We Shall Overcome”.

Finding who I am
What one is supposed to conquer?
The pain for understanding
Separating one’s self from the environment of hate
Life teachings through fate
Liberty the first step
Embarking on a journey truly my own
Eyes to see
Ears to hear
But throughout having no fear
Listen to me and believe
Release the tension and feel relieved
The world started from Heaven
Creations of color shades years ago
I am who I am
My principles are my thinking
I stand on fact
That is how I keep track
I am welcomed as a person in Heaven’s eyes
Yet to the world it might be a surprise
My name is associated with the skies
This is how I am wise
Intrigue to Lead
But never let be misled
It’s determination to proceed
Long to be free
Color is only the beauty within
The assortments of contrast
I want to walk in peace
Feel at ease
Live Harmony
Have joy like a symphony
My name is written among the skies
This is what makes me unified in wise
My understanding is no surprise
It’s Freedom where one must realize
Recognize
Civil Rights fight is where the need for freedom began
An end
Society says Race once again
Thrown in the face
The upward battle
No settle
The Blockade
No sitting in darkness under a shade
No hidden words
Having a mind to excel
The need to prove
Inspired and determined to move
Don’t need permission
Created from above
Freedom to think of
Society doesn’t want races to interrelate
There is a purpose to associate
The look of hate
No appreciate
Forefathers fought then and legacy continues in protest
Rebel ringing through the air
Society doesn’t care nor are fair
By any means necessary
Shout and speak making awareness as an outcry
No stand by
Freedom is a must to try
Look hatred in the eye
I am the who and not the why
Can’t be silent because I shouldn’t
Determined with desired words
The need to be heard
Look at me and see
My own means necessary
The theory with a story
Freedom will be my glory.

A look back into where it all began
It seems even today there is no end
But let me narrate from begin
Black slaves were sold to work on plantations
Numerous slave ships that would dock in towns being the indication
It was being black a setback
The hanging being a crucifixion
But justice in stating, it was justification
Now Dr. Martin Luther King saw a separation and compression
The world certainly needed education in being a lesson
Dr. King’s heart felt a deep eruption within his soul
It was time for Washington, DC to look and behold
Dr. King felt all races and creeds needed to come together
We were all no difference from the other
Color in variations beyond any casting shades of shadows
Freedom rang it was time for a change
But when Dr. King gathered the nation together under one accord
He was guided by no other than the good Lord
Things were starting to be put into place
That moment no one could erase
Yet when Dr. King was murdered
Uttered sounds became we have loss our voice
As years rolled on, Freedom has become a distant word
Where do we go to be heard?
Today Freedom has been placed into a locked box
Eyes of evil being a keen fox
Hatred has turned into ****
Determination has been defeated with a question of will
Yet the world continues to go on in still
Liberty not being justice for all
In fact, it’s a non-working clock stopping on stall
Aftermath of years being free
Its only sentence’s being a quiet look see
Nations are fighting nations
Boundaries with no solutions
The world is only drawing its own conclusions
No outcome but continued violence
Forces that control are remaining silent
Whatever happened to “My Country Tis of Thee?”
This was in Public School in what they taught me
Sweet land of Liberty
It is now the land of pity
Races against each other
No respect for my Sister and Brother
Freedom is no longer placed at front doors
As a nation we just continue to ignore
The violence needs to end
Come together as a nation in begin
Unless we rearrange there is no change
What negative image is in the mirror things will remain
The Promised Land is where we all need to stand
This was Dr. King’s demand
What really does Freedom hold
Do we continue to fight and **** and act bold?
Freedom means trust and shake my hand and hold
Togetherness is establishment in whole
Freedom, please lead me on
Freedom eyes would sure be a welcomed surprise.

Where have you been
Darkened with uncertainty
No place to be found
Chanted spiritual songs within one’s encouraging thought
I need to be free
I pray to thee
Thunder raw
Lightening outburst
Slavery was hard and tormented
Beaten and torn
Sunrises being a forbidden rise
Working on those cotton fields
Plantation ordeals for real
Wounds showing the many rebels
Trapped in a prohibited society
No pity
Freedom only a thought
Praying and constant praying
Singing upon singing
The slaves hope surrounded up in Heaven
Numerous cries heard
In 1862, the Emancipation Proclamation was documented, and Freedom became the word’s that Afro-Americans needed to hear
No more worry some of fear
It took place in Galveston, Texas
Years upon years of denial
Not knowing where nor if
Heaven the many outcries
Crisis finally came to an end
Freedom, Freedom, Freedom
From Slavery life into the light of the earthly kingdom
Sacrifice proven
Land’s wisdom
Dwell doers
The raw of thankful emotion
Smooth breezes and calm oceans
Life was and will be worth living
The call for Freedom
Emancipation at its best

FREEDOM WAYS

Yond to be free
Yet Freedom ultimately delayed
I want to run away, but have been beaten with every try
I just weep
I can’t even sleep
All I can do is just dream of freedom
But my eyes on the Heaven’s with aiming for the kingdom
We will be shown the way
The Slave owner doesn’t want us the people to go astray
As long as there is breath in this body, a freedom slave one day
Just you wait and see
Beaten and whips will be no more
A new day will be a slave’s new explore
No more will I have to worry about struggles being ignored
My footsteps being how long a slave
All the Master wants is a slave to just behave
The Moon looks pretty tonight
I see strength giving me might
I will make a plan for my escape
After all, a slave is considered like a moving ape
Freedom means being determined to be free
It’s the outlook of Freedom being a one day
A plantation loss is a slave’s gain
No more ******* that will ever remain
I have been a slave all my life
My thoughts and speech being my only advice
God watches and my prayers reaching Heaven
My Soul bleeds, but I am determined to proceed
This Slave has a story to tell, and comes from the crystal waters from a well
A slave only knows, but it’s the true testimony that shows.

I saw my distance
It was my miles in journeys
Blisters on feet like sores
My struggles provided understanding
They prepared me in what to expect
My tears previously flowed like water falls
The thought of my fellow Slaves who died
But I stayed focused in knowing what God who provide
No matter how hot the sun became
Freedom was going to be my aim
The thought never entered my mind that I may not make it
I knew it was going to be a battle, and I couldn’t change the world’s thinking
My inspiration had to continue being sustaining
Deep in my heart, I couldn’t let the world change my spirit
I had to be determined
Blockades were everywhere
Echoes of preserver within
Escaping through rivers was my only chance
My freedom was how I would advance
Yet a voice from Heaven saying, “Push On”
Your freedom will come
It was assurance
It took all of my endurance
Teach your people God’s guidance
I gave you wisdom
Understanding directly from the kingdom
You are free
No longer anyone’s slave
Freedom ways has started
Go and be free
The Sun will guide you to your next journey
Free at last

A journey into destiny
Inspiration without enduring pity
It is not a trip through a city
However it is living within reality
Years of separation
A time when writing was a enemy in not
A hidden curse being a plot
In justice in not letting your mind expand
Exercising your rights documented in creed on the United States land
Your writing was meant to reach
It was part of education in all to teach

Words have no favoritism
Actions are only disturbing needing a direct response
Writing falls partly into that category
Words construct in how the writer feels with all the conditions that apply
Endless moments from a past with a cry
Every thinking moment becomes a writing try
Every idea is another day in being wise
Life understanding becomes wisdom absorbed
Those moments alone becomes a concept explored

Back in slavery days, reading and writing wasn’t an option
Yet it was educating one’s mind to take a chance
However, it was Freedom Writers who had courage and Faith to step out
Your writing was meant to reach
It was part of education in all to teach

Words have no favoritism
Actions are only disturbing needing a direct response
Writing falls partly into that category
Words construct in how the writer feels with all the conditions that apply
Endless moments from a past with a cry
Every thinking moment becomes a writing try
Every idea is another day in being wise
Life understanding becomes wisdom absorbed
Those moments alone becomes a concept explored

Back in slavery days, reading and writing wasn’t an option
Yet it was educating one’s mind to take a chance
It didn’t matter if one didn’t advance
However, it was Freedom Writers who had courage and Faith to step out
Today, opportunity plays its part in giving you assurance that you have the talent to write
I am not trying to be polite
I want to help someone to come out of the shadows and be among into the light
Freedom Writers is what it says, and they have given you the floor plan in writing in what they think
Write where others cannot
Think where others are uncertain
Encourage where negativity has been applied
Your realize will certainly be your observation eyes
Be enthused with every writing try
Our Forefathers who wrote paved the way in how each of us write today
As a writer, you are the destined voice
You had some doubt, but you became the choice
You are “Freedom write with Liberty gained”.

Explored the USA countryside
The beauty and elegance within provide
I visited historical homes where famous people resided
Seeing state after state
Within those states where history relate
My heart felt appreciate
A time to reflect and deviate
Saw hills that were mountains
Captured waterfalls that were like fountains
Travel I dreamed about
All I can do is reflect with a happy shout
Blessed to be able to travel
So much to take in, it was gravel
There is so much to see in America before traveling abroad
But travelling has made me aware and assured
It’s a blessing that can only come from the Lord

A friend stopped by
Refreshing breeze to the senses
Sitting alone I knew I wasn’t alone
Thoughts came to mind and was inspired
Ideas of some sort
Each and every whisk of the wind was encouraging
The skies whose clouds were wise
I was visualizing eye to eye
My mind then focused on reset
The wind alone had that effect
Friendly voices seem to echo through the breezes
All I could say was “What a relieve”
Sad at one moment and transformed into happy the next
Every look up at the sky seeing beauty that surrounded me
All I could see
The breezes and intertwine
All came together being genuine
Life in realize the breezes showed
The wind became an everlasting friend
Every breeze for all time
I was feeling and living it being a worthy gift
Fantastic thrift

A dark and thunderous night
Howling in the distance
Mourns within an instance
It was creatures from everywhere
Yet the eerie night in beware
Traces of blood could be found along the streets
Innocent victims loss into defeat
Suddenly across the street a hand extends from the ground
A deceased unrest was making a rebound
As the deceased walks it is the voice of a troubled sound
The earth was cursed
The rising dead being a new birth
Night of watch and observe
The creatures have taken control of the earth
A moment too late
Tomorrow being a new date
Happy Halloween being the slate.
Growing up my favorite words was I can’t without ever trying
My Grandfather always assured in his wisdom words as there is no such thing as can’t unless you try and it is proven
That’s where I put to the test in seeing first hand of can’t in trying being the truth
That was a strong matter my Grandfather set forth
If anybody has felt the way I saw can’t without making a movement in the effort, then this poem message is just for you
You must pursue
Can’t is only a substance in you won’t
Not will to try
Try becomes the effort of discovering
In fact, one is only defeating themselves in not seeing the reasoning in purpose
Be confident and prove to yourself without a matter of doubt
Show yourself you are willing to try, and see how it turns out by advancing into assurance of committing
Effort is what should come out into possibilities with mind over matter
Can’t is doubt
Effort is assurance
I hope being the example being your uplifting influence
The effort made
A can’t be done should be an effort in precise.
