Is it worth leaving everything behind to gain all that you think you need?
As humans we often look for approval and motivation from family and friends. All the while knowing that self approval and self motivation is the key to all things in your life. Some feel that stepping out on faith is hard to do without a plan or safety net. However, when you have faith there's no room for fear. There are some people that follow their heart and succeed with little strife; there also are some who fear the unknown and talk themselves into failure.

Your faith has to be greater than your fear to succeed in life.

BLACK MOTHERS
I must confess that I still breathe
though you are not yet free.
What could justify my crying start?
Forgive my cowards heart
-but blame me not the sheepish me
for I have just awakened from a deep, deep, sleep.
And I be hazed, and dazed, and scared
and vipers fester in my hair,
BLACK MOTHER I curse your drudging years,
The rapes and heart-breaks, sweat and tears.
But this cannot redeem the fact,
you cried in pain, I turned my back
and ran into the fog
and watched while you were dogged
and died a thousand deaths.
But I swear on siege night, dark and gloom,
a rose, I'll wear to honor you.
And when I fall the rose in hand
you will be free and I a Man.
For a slave, of natural death, who dies
can't balance out to 2 dead flies.
I'd rather be without the shame
a bullet lodged within my brain
if I were not to reach our goal
let bleeding cancer torment my soul.
