''The Price of Admission''

show your pass, or move along!"
What proof could you present, my friend
to show that you belong?
If getting rich meant first
you had to answer "Tell me why!"
What story could you tell
to make it clear you qualify?
If joy said, "State your case
before the jury has its say!"
What closing statements could you make
to sway the vote your way?
And if you ask with each new day
"I'm waiting, why not me?"
The currency of time or talent
is how life takes its fee
Admission to your dreams
is not through luck or rolling dice
The door will open wide
when you decide to pay the price!
COMMENTARY:
If things aren't moving forward the way you wish, it might be because you don't have the right ticket for the journey. But how do you get that ticket? What's the price and whom do you pay? You pay with your time and/or your talent. Could it be that you need to invest more of your time in a project or to a cause? Maybe it's your talent you need to develop and offer to the world. With that outlook foremost in mind, you'll always be adding value to the world, and you'll always keep busy as you move toward the thing you desire! Note: The first few Walt's Friday Inspiration emails included quotes from various authors and personalities. It wasn't until episode 19 that I tried my hand at writing the rhyme-based inspirational messages myself. The rest, as they, is history...
