Achievement

Achievement

This is not just
the rung on a ladder,
or a long climb
up some steep hill,
For life is neither.
This is your heart
telling your soul
that it knows your path,
that you have the will to walk it,
And the sun is now yours.

Written for our daughter, who was recently sworn in as a new attorney in New York State. We should all celebrate our achievements, and this is all hers.

Do not shy away from the mark you make. Cherish it. And then use it.
