Success




Success means something different
to each one of us,
but it comes to those who are willing to work hard
and who continue to be dedicated
to making their dreams come true...

Success means setting goals
and focusing yourself in the right direction
in order to reach them.
It means believing in yourself
and constantly reminding yourself
that you are capable of acheiving you desires.
But most of all, success is being who are you,
and feeling proud of yourself
for every task and challenge
that you face and conquer along the way.

It Is My Duty




I walk through those doors with pride,
whose life will I save tonight?
someone waiting for me,
someone is alive today because of my duty.
Sometimes we cry because we can't save them all,
God sometimes won't let us interfere when
he calls.

A baby's first breath when he looks at me,
the joy of my first delivery.
The tear I wipe a way with my own hands,
the life ending of a gentle old man.
The night seems so dark and the morning so bright.
Being a nurse you see life in different light.

Who will I save tonight?
Who will hold my hand during their last breath
with no fright?
How many mothers will greet their baby with kiss?
I don't know who these special people are
But I will meet them with every call
I will hold them tight and help the pain
I will hold them up when they feel faint.
I will be strong when I am needed.
That is my job, that is my duty.
