What defines you

Published by

Akhila

on

Never could a broken heart define you

Never could a crying eye define you

You are born to learn from imperfections

You are powered to win over your hurdles

What defines you is how you bounce back

How you bounce back from all those setbacks.

        Oh. my old college would have visited Google sometime, I guess. 🙂 maybe they found it there. It’s a quote from Zig Ziglar. one of my favorites. I liked the poetic spin on it 😀

            It drives me too. Common truths are commonly the most difficult to remember, so I keep it in a picture 🙂 Just to read when I stumble or fall.
