a sages wisdom

“It’s impossible”
he screamed
with a tone of frustration
“why is that?”
his mentor questioned
with a smile of knowing
“you ask me to do something
that can’t be done”
his mentor looked deep
into his eyes and spoke
with calm force behind his words
“what a man can do
and what a man can’t do
is only limited
by what he believes he can do.
When you understand this
nothing is outside your grasp.”
