Fix your eyes on that which matter.
Not the glam, not the fans, not the chants and hailings.
Fix your eyes on that which matter.
Not the accolades, not the privileges, not the competition, and not the luxury.
Fix your eyes on that which matter.
The inner peace and joy, the hope that things will get better.
That even when times are hard, you are still very much content.
Fix your eyes on that which matter.
The rest of your soul, the peace in your mind, the settling calmness knowing that your life’s choices are not superficial.
Your path is not guided by vanity.
Fix your eyes on that which matter.
Come rain or shine, you keep moving.
Keep trusting, keep believing, keep praying knowing that your path is devoid of baggages of distractions.
Fix your eyes on that which matter.
Trusting that you have carefully minded your journey.
